Black Square Panel of Basilica San Miniato

Bold yet elegant, this captivating decorative panel is a testament to traditional Florentine craftsmanship. Made of repurposed wood, the panel is hand-painted with acrylic tempera in black with white streaks and boasts a rendering of the fa√ßade of Basilica San Miniato built in 1018 in Florence, half in a pencil drawing and the other half painted to its original likeness with green and blue accents. The frame’s marbled texture is made with a sponging method evoking the smooth “encausto veneziano” finish on church fa√ßades. This piece will be a stunning statement piece as a wall or floor insert.
