Offered by Seghers & Pang Fine Arts
A large yet elegant half column in limestone decorated with detailed ivy foliage at the base and a body with large flutes. Great patina. The ivy decoration is very similar to the decorated base of pillars in the northern entrance of the cathedral in Chartres. Hence we are inclined to situate it in the 13th century. This large architectural element will transmit its medieval poetry to any room you will put it in. Wear and old restoration of a fracture. Transport not included in price. Dimensions: 173x33x18cm.
