Large, heavy, solid copper-plated wall plaque, measuring 120cmx43cm and weighing 15kg. The relief scene depicts a horse drawn log cart, with a gentleman resting beneath a tree with what appears to be a saint/Madonna shrine on the tree trunk. The scene appears to be of Germanic origin, possibly dating from 1920's onwards, as the cart appears to have pneumatic tyres.
There doesn't appear to be a maker's or artist's name anywhere on the plaque.
I bought this vase at an antique shop many years ago more for its looks but now I am curious of what it is and its origin and if it's worth anything.It has a dark brown glaze with a carved relief of an asian scenery (Japanese?).
