SILVER-PLATED COPPER SHIELD IN THE 16TH C RENAISSANCE STYLE
Silver-plated copper shield in the 16th-century Renaissance style. This is a copy of king Henri II (reigned 1547–59) heraldic shield, circa 1550. The battle scene at the center is thought to depict the victory of Hannibal and the Carthaginians over the Romans in Cannae in 216 B.C., which here could be interpreted as an allusion to the struggle of France against the Holy Roman Empire during the sixteenth century. The original is kept in the Louvre museum (Paris, France).Ca. 1885.
Dimensions: L: 23 in., (58.5 cm.)W: 18 in., (46 cm.)
Condition: Good condition with normal tarnish in crevices, (areas of silver worn to copper base), some small dings, and light surface wear in areas scattered throughout.
