"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867

Amazing skill to be able to do the repousse work switching back and forth between the 2 views!

This cup is part of the Berthouville treasure and is displayed in the Louvre in Paris and the repousse' is very fine work indeed the kind of work I enjoy doing.

The treasure is actually in the Getty Museum through 2015. It was sent there for cleaning, study and restoration:

Quote:Richard. Brian, you're always welcome to make me a copy of this cup or of the 'kantharos van Stevensweert'.
