Santini adorned the columns with decorative, carved, wooden and metallic elements to contrast the rich tones of the marble. There are detailed baroque-styled candleholders, each holding a skull & bones, that rise up along the whole column height. Instead of a capital at the top, you will find various plump cherubs (or putto), holding musical instruments or skulls in their laps. . 💀 Mailing list, art prints, and more! 💀 ☩ sedlecossuary.mechanicalwhispers.com ☩ ☩ Or through link in bio. ☝️ ☩ . . . . . .
