Large Elbow Reinforce (Pasguard or Soprabracciale)
The Large Elbow Reinforce (Pasguard or Soprabracciale) by the artist, is a metallic piece that appears to be made of steel or silver. The object has an L-shape design resembling an elbow and a curved end that would fit around a limb. The surface features a design with radiating lines extending from the bend, stopping before the edges. The object has two cylindrical sections connected at a 90-degree angle. The design consists of intricate etchings arranged in a series of bands and curved shapes with leaf-like motifs. The background of the image transitions from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The image is taken straight on with the object centered. The object sits on a flat surface, casting a faint shadow underneath. The etchings on the object resemble floral patterns. The object appears to be historical in nature.
