Oval Bas-Relief Plaque of a Woman's Profile, possibly Art Nouveau style

This item is an oval-shaped bas-relief plaque, predominantly black in color, depicting the profile of a woman. The plaque appears to be cast from a heavy material, possibly plaster, resin, bronze, or cast iron, given its dark, matte finish and the discernible raised sculptural elements. Its dimensions are not explicitly visible, but it appears to be substantial, likely around 12-18 inches in height based on its placement on a shelf. The woman's profile is oriented towards the right, featuring flowing hair that extends dynamically across the upper portion of the plaque, suggesting movement or a stylized windblown effect. Her facial features are somewhat obscured by the dark color and low lighting, but an aquiline nose and a defined jawline are visible. A drapery or garment is sculpted around her shoulders and upper torso, adding to the classical or allegorical feel of the piece. The overall impression is one of elegance and graceful lines, characteristic of Art Nouveau or similar aesthetic movements from the late 19th to early 20th century. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures from the provided image. The surface appears to have a uniform dark finish, possibly painted or patinated, with some minor scuffs or dust visible that contribute to its aged appearance. There are no obvious signs of significant damage like cracks or chips, indicating fair to good condition. The plaque is displayed on a separate, simple black metal stand, suggesting it is intended for tabletop display rather than wall mounting. The craftsmanship seems solid, with clear definition in the sculpted elements, indicating a mass-produced decorative item or possibly a smaller-scale artistic casting.
