The Plaque is <strong>Bronze Patinated</strong> and depicts the stunning Gilt Decoration on the front of the famed Folies Beregere<strong>&nbsp;</strong>Parisian music hall founded in 1869 and noted for the lavish spectacle and mildly risqu&eacute; content of its entertainments. When the vogue of nudity seized the music halls of Paris in 1894, the Folies elaborated it to such an extent that the theatre&rsquo;s reputation for sensational displays of female nudity came to overshadow its other performances. This is a very striking Art Deco style Plaque in hand hammered brass with Bronze patination and please note the dimensions.</span></span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Height</strong> 51.5&quot; (131cm) <strong>Width</strong> 51.5&quot; (131cm) <strong>Depth</strong> 1.75&quot; (4.5cm)</span></span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Weight</strong> 17.5KG&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; <strong>&euro;7450 <br /> </strong></span></span></p>
