Description

Interesting large mid 19th century bronze portrait plaque dated 1856. It is beautifully cast with a large central bust in profile of a distinguished gentleman and is headed 'F George 1856'. I was told it was an American piece with civil war connections when I purchased it and clearly 1856 was a significant point in US history. It is signed by the artist J Lavergne who was a noted French artist who specialised in bronzes. The bronze has taken on great colour/patina and is in good original antique condition. There is a very small loss on the edge but it is tiny and a hole at the top to enable it to be hung. Please refer to the detailed photographs and feel free to contact me if you would like to view the item or have any questions.
