The decorative stuccoes described here are plaster artifacts that do not represent a simple method of sculpture using marble or stone.
The bas-relief constitutes a fundamental piece of human history, a milestone that under no circumstances at present can we afford to forget, because it would be tantamount to indifferently witnessing the extinction of a beautiful animal.

Their presence has been found in every civilization, from the Mesopotamian peoples to the ancient Greeks thanks to whom this art form reached its apogee.
The technique then evolved among the Etruscans and Romans, eventually acquiring a decorative function in Renaissance churches.
And despite its more than 2,000 years of existence, the art of bas-relief even today has not died out; in fact, there are specialized schools in which sculpting is taught just as it was in ancient times.

And if the immense historical value of this pearl of art is not enough to shake one’s spirits, then simply consider that bas-reliefs are a testament to the astounding creative capacity of the human mind as well as its ability to master a technique to improbable levels.
Simply put, bas-reliefs as well as their “cousins,” the high-reliefs, represent tangible proof that “phenomena exist.”

There is no other term for those who, from a common square block, were able to create masterpieces of inestimable beauty and aesthetic perfection.
A work that required months if not years of assiduity and constancy, to which these artists of antiquity devoted themselves with mind and heart, but above all heart, driven by a burning desire to enhance man in all his solemnity.

So, if you feel that the house you bought is too special to be adorned with the usual ornamental paintings, give it something concrete, something that will really enhance it.
Something to remind you what man can go to in order to satisfy his insatiable thirst for creativity and his desire to always put himself on the line, each time against something bigger than himself.
Something, in short, that will carve amazement in the eyes of those who enter your home, and give you day after day the joy that comes from living in contact with art and history.
