Patina Options

Each piece is custom finished. Depending on a sculpture’s texture and level of detail, the look of a patina can vary. A slight variation in color from order to order is to be expected.

Unless otherwise noted, our reproductions are hand cast in plaster and reinforced with burlap, fiber strands, and/or metal rods for extra strength.

 

FLAT WHITE: A unified, matte white finish. This is the optimum patina for cast drawing as it allows focus on form.

42 Inches High x 38 Inches Wide

This relief is part of the Cantoria, or Singing Gallery, created for the organ loft in Florence Cathedral. Instead of housing the organ, it eventually served as a home for the choir singers during services. The Cantoria is the first documented work of Luca della Robbia (1399/1400-1482). His ten panels depict the 150th Psalm, which refer to different ways of praising the Lord. Two years after he started his commission, Donatello was commissioned to create another cantoria to complement della Robbia's. The della Robbia Cantoria originally hung above the door to the North Sacristy and Donatello's above the door to the South Sacristy, but both were dismantled in 1688 and later moved to the Museo dell' Opera del Duomo. (For della Robbia's other Cantoria reliefs, see Items #185, 187, and 221. For Donatello's Cantoria, see Items #47 to 50.)
