查看翻譯古羅馬 瑪瑙 凹版與火星
編號 88549097
A finely carved ancient Roman agate intaglio depicting a helmeted male figure, likely Mars, with a sceptre or a spear. There is a shield before him, and he is wearing a short tunic. Mars's left hand is outstretched in front of him, holding something up. According to iconographic tradition, it could be a smaller-scale personification of Victory. The reverse of the gemstone is highly polished and undecorated. The agate stone presents with a striking orange hue. Some encrustations remain on the surface. Hairline crack to the reverse. There is a chip to the left of Mars, that doesn't damage the image. This piece is supplied with a museum-quality impression.
The term intaglio refers to a small image that has been engraved into a gemstone and usually set in a piece of jewellery, most commonly a ring. Such artistic form has its origin in Sumer in the 4th millennium BC, with the appearance of cylinder and stamp seals, whereby decorations and patterns were engraved into soft stones. During the Hellenistic period and the early Roman Empire, the art of intaglio reached its apogee, with there being a steady decline in craftsmanship in the late Imperial Rome, until a revival of interest with the Byzantine and during the Renaissance.
Measurements: L 1.4cm x W 1.1cm
Provenance: From the collection of a Swiss gentleman formed in Europe from 1970-1980s; thence by descent from the family in London.
