19th century Austrian red stag trophy on original Black Forest carved plaque that hung in Emperor Franz Josef's castle at Eckartsau in the Southern Austrian Alps. Eckartsau was a favourite hunting schloss of the Habsburg family. The plaque itself is an original, hand-carved plaque in a classic Black Forest theme including oak leaves and acorns on each side of the plaque and a large badge at the bottom (these areas would often be used to add writing or a date for the trophy). The cap also features a military wappen with three lions on a laurel-wreath badge.
Plaque measures 14.5" H x 10.5" W. Total height is 35", antler spread is 26" and the antler depth is 19" (to the wall).
