An Allegorical Scene c. 16th century

This small, circular bronze plaquette, created by an anonymous artist in the 16th century, depicts an allegorical scene. The central figures are two nude figures, likely representing Adam and Eve, with a winged figure above them. The plaquette's intricate details include a serpent, a bird, and a lion, suggesting a narrative based on the Garden of Eden. The plaquette's small size and intimate scale would have likely made it a private devotional piece.
