ANOTHER GREAT
A pair of 1800s Victorian Nude Bohemian Style enamel plaques, likely on a metal substrate. Each circular, convex plaque depicts a nude female figure in a stylized natural setting. The first portrays a blonde woman seated in profile on a red striped form, while the second depicts a blonde woman with styled hair, seated or reclining with crossed arms on a blue draped form amidst foliage. Both pieces feature prominent dark outlines and a vibrant color palette including skin tones, yellow, green, blue, and red against an off-white ground. The artistic style, while described as Victorian in market listings, also shows influences of early to mid-20th-century Art Nouveau or Art Deco aesthetics. No visible text or markings are present.
