Beautiful Our Lady of Good Help moulded metal plaque in a thick wooden frame. 
Mary is represented sheltering people under her coat. This specific representation is inspired by an 18th century wooden statue that is in a chapel in Mouterhouse in Lorraine (East of France). On the original statue, she is protecting 14 people that are meant to represent all the different classes of society.
The metal was originally painted but the paint is gone in large places. The paint that is still visible is very worn.
The metal is tarnished, scratched and has stains.
The wooden frame also has some imperfections from age and use. The wood is worn and faded in places. Small stains and scratches. One gap visible in a corner but the frame holds well.
The frame is meant to be displayed on a flat surface. The wood at the top of the stand at the back is cracked probably because of the screws used for the hinge. It still stands properly.
Small metal pieces at the back to close the opening are a bit loose and move easily.
There is also a small loop at the top so the frame could be hung on the wall.
Size: 21.7 x 16.4 cm /  8.26 x 6.29 inches.
Weight: 417 grams.
