Studio Vertu, Edouard Manet, "The Railway" Tumbled Botticino Marble 8" Trivet

Studio Vertu, Edouard Manet, "The Railway" Tumbled Botticino Marble 8" Trivet
Handsome 8" x 8" heavy-duty of Manet's famous painting "The Railway".  Painted at the Gare Saint–Lazare, in 1873 the largest and busiest train station in Paris, we have a woman and child confined to a narrow space backed by the black bars of an iron fence and isolated by clouds of steam sent up from a train passing below. The woman is Victorine Meurent, Manet's favorite model in the 1860s, and the child was the daughter of a fellow painter who allowed Manet to use his garden to create The Railway. 

Made from durable tumbled marble, this trivet is designed to provide excellent heat resistance and protection for your table surfaces. It's the perfect addition to any wine lover's kitchen or anyone who enjoys decorating with a French motif.

Specifications

• Trivet measures 8" x 8"
• Italian Botticino marble surface, cork on backside
• Product Care: The best method for cleaning is with a damp soft sponge or cloth. Please do not use any abrasive cleaners or pads as this will scratch the image. A tiny spritz of a gentle glass cleaner such as Windex will also clean them right up. Do not put in dishwasher – not because of the heat or the water but because the backside cork will peel off.
