Spit-roasted dinner

106,00 €

This limestone low-relief depicts a rustic scene with multiple intricate details. Inlay on molding is a technique used to accompany the limestone deposition during the reproduction of these details. Surrounded by a frieze of delicately veined leaves, the scene centers around shepherds roasting a beast on a spit over an open wood fire. A man lying on the ground tends to the fire by blowing on it.

The landscape is hilly: downhill on the left, sheep graze, and on the right, perched on the hill, a wolf, enticed by the scent, observes the trio.
