Plaque 1892 - 1903

"Plaque" is a terracotta relief sculpture created by American artist Caroline H. Rimmer between 1892 and 1903. The work depicts a nude female figure seated on a swan, the image framed by a detailed background of flora and fauna. The relief is on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Rimmer’s work often featured female figures in idealized settings, reflecting the Aesthetic Movement's emphasis on beauty and craftsmanship.
