A brilliantly carved panel in oak of a putti standing upright and holding branches of a fruit tree, possibly a pomegranate. He is wearing a toga-like wrap, and has butterfly wings. He stands on a small plinth, surrounded by curved and curling designs. He is in a wooden frame with gilt edging in a Byzantine pattern. He is very high relief, being nearly 3-dimensional, standing out from the panel 1 3/4 inches. The carving is of exceptional quality. It is unsigned. Size: in the frame: 26 inches high and 18 inches wide. The panel itself is 20 inches high and 12 inches wide. Excellent, with minor age cracking to the wood.
