Rare 19th-Century Diorama of a Ceremonial Parade Boat in Wooden Transport Case Dimensions: 160 x 40 x 20 cm Material: Wood, papier-mâché, cardboard Origin: Possibly French, Belgian, or German, 19th - early 20th century This exceptional and rare diorama depicts a richly decorated ceremonial parade boat, complete with detailed figures dressed in colorful historical or fantasy attire. The scene evokes a theatrical spectacle, a historical procession, or a literary imagination, possibly inspired by the works of Jules Verne or classical opera. The boat itself is beautifully crafted with an elaborate decorative finish. The figures, likely made of papier-mâché or cardboard, are hand-painted and arranged in a staged tableau on the deck. The wooden case in which the model is stored suggests it was a valuable exhibition piece, possibly used in museums, theatrical productions, or as part of a traveling collection. Given its rarity and remarkable state of preservation, this is an extraordinary collector’s item for enthusiasts of historical dioramas, nautical art, and 19th-century theatrical decorations. The box has been retro-fitted with a LED strip lighting module operated by a remote control unit. The item has been featured in the Belgian "Eénmaal Andermaal" television series with Jacques Vermeire and Axel Daeseleire.
