Description

A rare neoclassical onyx cameo signed by Teresa Talani. Head of Apollo.

Early 19th century.

21 x 26 x 7 mm.

Beautiful head of Apollo laureate facing right. The model is certainly the gold stater of Philip II (Macedonia, Amphipolis 340-328 B.C.). The cameo is signed TERESA TALANI F. Two layer agate. Beautiful execution. For comparison: Gabriella Tassinari, Teresa Talani, incisore di gemme in epoca napoleonica in LANX 18 (2014), pp. 48-128.

From the family collection of coins and gems of the jeweller August Merklein (1865-1940).
