Hellenistic Relief Wall Art IV

A study in antiquity rendered through contemporary craft, this relief composition from John Richard channels the frieze traditions of the ancient Mediterranean into a format scaled for the modern interior. Fashioned from composite and wood in a luminous silver finish, the piece carries the weight of classical scholarship without demanding architectural grandeur — at nineteen inches tall, it commands its wall with quiet authority. The shallow depth of the relief allows light to rake across its surface, animating the carved forms through shadow much as sunlight once moved across the stone faces of Hellenic temples.
