Wall hanging metal sculpture in cast bronze. Traditional lost wax investment casting technique. Gracefully articulated filigree line work references an abstract silhouette symbol. This work of fine art tells an interesting story of the Georgian era and the French Revolution as a satire for the class divide between the privileged rich and unfortunate poor of the modern day. The renowned opulence of Queen Marie Antoinette reflects the decadence and luxury of modern oligarchs. Created by New Orleans artist Karina Harper for the French Revolution collection.
