Art Nouveau cast bronze miniature plaque depicting a Neoclassical figure of a woman holding a wreath and a dove.  Figure depicts 19thC symbols of Love, Virtue and Sentimental Mourning.  Design elements and detailed casting reflect the possible work of Victor David Brenner (American 1871-1924).  Brenner was a renowned medal designer who created the iconic Lincoln Head penny in 1909.  This small plaque might have been set in a small frame but a finback has been later added so it may be worn as a lapel brooch.  The front has a coppery finish and the back is a rough rust color.  Rectangular with corners trimmed, it measures 2 inches X 4 inches.  areas of patina help to define the design and overall condition is very good.  No maker mark is detected.
