Italian Gesso Plaster Wall Sculpture, 1920s - 5 Available
An Italian gesso plaster wall sculpture from the 1920s, square in form, the panel is framed by a stepped border that draws the eye inward to a dense composition of carved foliage, fruit, and scrolling botanical motifs.
The relief recalls decorative fragments found in historic Italian interiors, where walls, ceilings, and furnishings were often conceived as part of a continuous ornamental language.
Executed in gesso plaster, the surface carries areas of worn whitewash and exposed undertones, revealing decades of handling and restoration, creating a patina that feels accumulated. The softened edges of the carving catch light unevenly, emphasizing the sculpture’s texture.
Sold and priced individually.
