Rectangular antique cast iron fireback featuring a central oval medallion with a left-facing profile of King Louis XVI. The monarch is shown with a distinctive rolled hairstyle characteristic of the late 18th century. The portrait is flanked by two cherubs holding flags and raising a laurel wreath above the king’s head — a classical symbol of triumph and honor. The figures stand on a stylized cloud, reinforcing the allegorical and celebratory tone of the piece. The overall design suggests a production dating from the Revolutionary or early 19th century, honoring the royal figure with neoclassical iconography.
