An unusual roman eight-layers banded agate cameo. Actor with mask and laurel wreath.

1st century B.C. - 1st century A.D.

7 x 9 x 3 mm

The elderly theatrical actor advances to the right, wearing a tunic skillfully engraved in the dark layer of the agate, unlike his body. With his left hand he holds a theatrical mask with the profile facing upwards, while with his left hand he holds a laurel wreath, symbol of victory and agonal triumph. This small cameo, expertly engraved on an unusual eight-layers agate, shows signs of wear and traces of a mounting on the edge. Rare and unpublished.



U.K private collection, London.
