Keystone of an Arch: Female Bust within a Medallion Supported by Angels

Cleveland Museum of Art

The sculpture depicts a curved stone carving with a female bust in a medallion at its center. The female bust is surrounded by two angels or winged figures. The figure on the left is holding a swirling object in their right hand and appears to be holding the medallion with their left hand. The right figure is mirroring the left, with their left hand holding a swirling object and their right on the medallion. The carving features a stone beige in color. The carving is segmented by floral patterns at the bottom. The background behind the stone piece is gray. A white line runs vertically down the rightmost edge.
