Description: Antique Swiss wood carving - Lion monument souvenir – (3700) The Lion Monument or ‘the Lion of Lucerne’, is a rock relief in Lucerne, Switzerland, designed by Bertel Thorvaldsen and hewn in to the rock in 1820 – 1821 by Lukas Ahorn. It commemorates the Swiss Guards who were massacred in 1792 during the French Revolution when revolutionaries stormed the Tuileries Palace in Paris. The monument is even to this day a popular tourist destination and we assume that this wooden replica was made as a souvenir at the end of the 19th century. On the bottom is a number (479) added by a previous collector. Length 14.2 cm. Width 5.5 cm. Height 7 cm. Final shipping cost will be based on actual postage. The difference will be reimbursed.
