Cameo, Athena. Glass. Possibly Italy, 19th century.
About the Item
Cameo, Athena. Glass. Possibly Italy, 19th century.
Glass cameo or intaglio with a feminine profile. Athena appears here represented with a helmet with animals, a plume, the head of the Gorgon Medusa around her neck and an element in her hand. Compare, also noting the differences, with the so-called Gem of Aspasios from the Rondini Collection (second half of the 1st century BC, Rome) found in the Museo Nazionale Romano in Rome (Itaia). These types of pieces were created in a significant number as they were highly appreciated as souvenirs by Grand Tour travelers, often several being put together to make collections. ·
Size: 2,3x0,6x3 cm
