Battle of Centaurs and Lapiths 

This small bronze plaquette, or relief sculpture, depicts a scene from the classical myth of the Battle of the Centaurs and Lapiths, which is thought to have been created by the Italian Renaissance artist Caradosso Foppa. The scene portrays a tumultuous battle between these two groups of mythical creatures in the foreground of the artwork. The composition is set in a classical architectural setting with Corinthian columns, which highlights the interest in classical art and mythology that was characteristic of the Renaissance. This plaquette, made from bronze, was likely created as a decorative element or a small-scale work of art for private collectors.
