About the Item

Cameo or intaglio, Urania. Glass. Possibly Italy, 19th century. The semi-naked female figure that appears seated and holding a sphere is often linked to the Muse of Astronomy and Astrology, Urania. Compare the piece with the intaglio by Giovanni Pilcher that is considered to also represent this muse, made before 1791 and kept in the British Museum in London. 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: 2,2x0,4x2,5 cm International Buyers – Please Note: for those articles that need Export Permits (those older than 100 years), the obtaining of the Permit will be processed without additional expenses (if you choose the seller sends it to you), but the period for the obtention of it may vary from 10 to 35 days.
