About This Piece
Two shield-shaped plaques are presented as a matched pair. Their decorated faces have complementary figure scenes and curved crests, while the illuminated reverse views show the outline of each piece.
Carving details and what to examine
The framing is part of the composition, so examine its relationship to the central motif as well as the motif itself. Edge and angled views help show whether the border is raised, recessed or simply outlined, and make the transitions into the main surface easier to assess.
