This calcium low-relief depicts a rural scene from Auvergne, France, reminiscent of life in the heart of the city Royat in times past. In the foreground, two washerwomen are busy by the riverside.
Next to them, a peasant couple tends to the fields, while a little further away, a farmer exchanges a few words with a child, adding warmth and familiarity to this village scene.
In the background, the Puy de Dôme, the majestic emblematic volcano of Auvergne, rises over the landscape. Its presence silently watches over the entire scene, reflecting the close bond between the inhabitants and their land.
Thanks to the encrustation on mould technique, every detail; from the folds of clothing and textures of the baskets to the volumes of the figures and the relief of the landscape; is rendered with remarkable precision. This panel becomes a poetic and lively testimony to Auvergne’s heritage, a decorative piece that brings warmth, history, and authenticity to any interior.
