ANTIQUE SET OF 2 VICTORIA AUSTRIA MEN & WOMEN BY A STONE WALL CABINET PLATES

Description

antique set of 2 6.25" wall / cabinet plates in a royal vienna classical scene with victoria, austria backstamp. i can date these plates to between  1904-1918 based on the manufacturers round mark back stamp . the image on these plates is decorated in the royal vienna style and is of two women and two men looking / pointing at something on a wall. i have really looked and looked to identify this image but i haven't been able to find anything like it. i know there has to be some sort of allegory but i just can't find any refrence to it. the center band of these plates is a vivid magenta with an ivory outer band. there is hand painted patterns in gold paint though out the plates. these plates measure 6.25" in diameter. there are no cracks or crazing on the plates. i did notice one tiny chip on the underside edge of one of the plates. please scope out my second to the last pic and judge for yourself. not to shabby for antique plates over 100 years old. please be sure to scope out my last pic, there is some wear in the magenta band from plates being stacked. scope out my last pic and judge for yourself.
i have taken a bunch of pictures to help give you an accurate idea of the condition. please, please, please look at them and enlarge them. i always try to highlight any flaws with the pictures. they are, by far, the most important part of my ad. also. please allow for color variations from screen to screen. let's keep it real, colors do vary from device to device.
