Alfred Essler (Czechia, 1929-2013), Bronze Nativity Relief Tondo

Cast bronze, signed and dated "A. ESSLER / Y-2003" to the edge, round plaque modeled as a Nativity scene with the holy family flanked by several putti and stable animals; the verso bracketed for wall display.

15 5/8 x 14 3/4 x 3 in.

Some areas of surface oxidation; Joseph's head appears to be cast separately and screw mounted likely in the making.
