Beschreibung

A roman deep red carnelian intaglio mounted in an ancient silver ring. Diana the huntress.
intaglio 14 x 17 mm; ring internal size 16 x 20 mm
The deity wears a short chiton with sandals, and faces left; the figure draws an arrow from the quiver on the shoulders with the left hand, and holds the bow with the right hand, ready to pull. At his feet, his faithful running dog. In the field: an eagle holding a laurel wreath in its beak and two standards at its sides. Ground line. Interesting allegorical scene referring to the military sphere, as a request for protection and victory. Silver ring with a small sphere near the edge of the setting, to orient the sense of reading the impression. Intact mounting with a pleasant patina.
2nd-3rd century AD.
