    Hi I would appreciate any information on this old relief carving. It is put together using three panels and seems rather old. It weighs about 500 pounds so i am not sure of the type of wood but it is heavy. It measures around 70" by 40". There are no nails and it has some separtion due to age. Any help would be appreciated.

    It’s late now so you probably won’t get much input tonight.

    I think more pictures would definitely help - the one single picture doesn't show a lot of detail or different angles. Closer up shots of some different areas of the carving, and pictures of the back would definitely be helpful.

    Have pics of the one to the right of it? The same/differentness between the pair may give important clues. Need pics of back, top edge, etc. in as high a definition as possible, those above aren’t high def and just blur when enlarged.
