Bas-relief painting in petrified limestone, also known as calcite, signed by sculptor CF Becker.
The work depicts a traditional harvest festival in an Auvergne village.
To complete the piece, the artist creates a matrix and then a negative mold. The mold is placed under petrifying waters rich in calcium carbonates, which cover it entirely with limestone.
This realistic painting is a true document of daily life in Auvergne.
