Jan Baptist Xavery’s "Schoorsteenstuk met drie putti: Fama, Libertas en Concordia" is a white marble relief sculpture created in 1742. The sculpture depicts three cherubs, representing Fame, Liberty, and Concord, who are each engaged in different activities. One cherub plays a trumpet, another holds a dove, and the third cherub is holding a cat. The sculpture is a testament to Xavery’s skill as a sculptor, highlighting the intricate details and realism of the figures. This relief sculpture would have originally been placed above a fireplace, adding a decorative and symbolic element to the room.
