This modern bas-relief is a creation by Jean Fonvieille for the Petrifying Fountains of Saint-Nectaire. His initials appear at the center of the artwork. ‘Wreck’ refers to the underwater environment. One envisions a sunken ship, of which only a few planks remain. The limestone low-relief is highly detailed, thanks to the daily guidance of the Master Craftsman in Petrification of the limestone deposit, who gradually brought to life all these intricate details. This contemporary artwork, presented on a limestone base, is a unique decorative object.
