    This are two of our favorite treasures: two antique wall plaques mounted on oval wood. We bought them about 15 year ago, and painted the wood in gold so they look less austere. They are hanging in the kitchen because they are very heavy (2.10 Kg each) and large, the metal measures 30 x 23 cm. The level of the detail and the good definition made me fell in love with them at once. They were not cheap but I do not remember the price after such a long time. We have no idea of the origin, the antiquity or anything else. I would say they are Austrian because of the shoes the man is wearing (third picture). The mountains are similar to the ones here in Córdoba but sure it is not a local view. They are not so old because of the hardware.
