Uvazhanmye forum, please tell me who can be the author (sculptor) and what is the presumed value of the panels?

Sincerely, Lina.

General feeling of well - the first quarter of the 18th century.

And casting it?
Not electroforming?

Casting!
In the photo number 3 on the right shows the stigma of sprue.

We went to a Polish auction houses to assess, more than they will not give.

Why not?
There are fans of the Petrine era in Russia.

I'm afraid I can give more.

The Battle of Kalisz
 

Topic of the Northern War was widely reflected in the works of Bartolomeo Rastrelli (paintings and bas-reliefs), where the central figure was Alexander Menshikov, on a horse (1709god June 30 Battle of Perevolochnaya), which is typical for a panel discussion (bas).
That is, that I found on the Internet:
"Back in 1721, when agreement was reached on the final negotiations between Russia and Sweden, which ended the Northern War, Peter I ordered Rastrelli to begin work on a model of the triumphal pillar dedicated to the victory of Russia. Following appeal to the triumphal pillar Rastrelli took over two years for this purpose, the sculptor executed eight and thirty-circular cylindrical bronze bas-reliefs. Work on the Triumphal pillar was assigned also to AK Nartov so triumphal pillar of the right to consider the creation of Rastrelli, Nartova. In 1723, Peter ordered to perform model Nartov triumphant pillars of ivory Rastrelli and-pillar design. Rastrelli and performs contour drawing Doric pillars, no bas-reliefs, surmounted by the figure of Peter I, taking as a basis for a Renaissance type of triumphal columns, designed by LB Alberti.

After the death of Peter I ordered Catherine AK Nartov "started a triumphal pillar in the end lead to the great glory of the great monarch of Russia Peter the Great," from which it is clear that by this time has been a change in views on the purpose of the monument. When Peter I, entrusting the work of Rastrelli, saw the triumphal pillar as a memorial in honor of the victories won by Russia in the Northern War, after his death, triumphant pillar is conceived primarily as a monument of Peter I, which marks a new stage in the history of its creation.

Since then, work on implementation of the triumphal pillar finally transferred to the jurisdiction of Nartova. Thanks to his energy and perseverance, to the years 1727-1730 all the parts of the monument were cast in bronze.

The pillar was conceived as a Doric column, topped by a statue of Peter the pedestal of which were decorated with four relief the historical and military scenes, "Taking Shlisselburg. 1702 "," Foundation of St. Petersburg. 1703 "," Capture of Narva. 1704, "" The Battle of Kalisz. 1706 ". In the eight cylindrical reliefs that constitute the core pillars, supposed to put pictures of Peter's famous battles with flowery inscriptions, explaining the essence of the depicted.

Is there any chance that presented by the bas-relief is the work of such famous masters as B.Rastrelli or Nartov?
