Beschreibung

A carnelian intaglio, mounted in a modern, gold and silver pendant. A scene of country sacrifice. A male character, turned to the left, is seated down on the ground, but on a small base, holding a snake in his right hand and pointing at a bowl with the left one; at the back, a naked female figure, with a fluttering drapery held by her right arm, is lifting a patera with her right hand while holding a goat head in the left one, close to a plynth. Ground line. An allegorical scene, inspired by ancient models, which recurs in glyptic production commencing from 17th century up to 18th-19th, often inserted also in sacrifice scenes packed with lots of characters. The gem is broken into two parts, kept together by the metallic mounting. For comparisons: Valerio Belli vicentino. 1468c. - 1546, a cura di Howard Burns, Marco Collareta, Davide Gasparotto, p.248 (Sacrificio bacchico. Incisione da P.J. Mariette), p. 522 n. cat. n. 157.I). Circa 17th century.
