About the Item
Cameo or intaglio, Cupid guiding lions. Glass. Possibly, Italy, 19th century.
You can see, in the foreground, a naked and winged child figure, Cupid (or Eros, god of love), guiding two lions, which pull a chariot (note the wheel). These scenes were common in divine processions, especially in the case of Cybele or Mars. 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.
