Series of four diamond-shaped wall-hanging plaques featuring ivory-colored Greek style female figures.
This ensemble screams Mid-century decorative arts, as the diamond shape is a favorite of the period (think diamond checkers, stylized stars or sunbursts, trapezes, tapered furniture legs, etc.).
Interestingly, the ivory-colored high-relief figures at the center of each diamond depict characters that have nothing to do with the Atomic Era: these are Maenads, or Bacchantes, both mythical and actual women who would follow / worship Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, fertility, religious ecstasy AND theater!
While the overall shape says Mid-century modern, the subject and color scheme, namely, the contrast between the ivory-colored central figures, the black backdrop and the gold trims, bring drama and glamor to the pieces. These plaques would make a great addition to any Hollywood Regency decor as well.
Very good vintage condition. Some foxing on three of the female figures. One of them is missing the tool (likely a knife) that she is brandishing in her right hand, but you have to inspect the piece very closely to realize that fault.
Dimensions: total length 15” ¼
