Description
From four antique moldings that were used earlier in a different context. In front of a Corinthian pilaster are two angels on pedestals, one on a volute, the second on a console. Their individual attributes characterize them as virtues: the cross as faith, the star as love, the vase as temperance, the scroll as wisdom, the balance (fragment) as justice, the sword as bravery, the wreath as fame and the broken column as strength.
