A large roman italic chalcedony intaglio. Dionysos with mask.
2nd-1st century B.C.
13 x 21 x 3 mm
The young god is elegantly leaning against a column, in the act of contemplating a theatrical mask. Behind his shoulders, the thyrsus. His body is partially naked (only the legs are draped) and has a well-engraved musculature with delicate anatomical volumes. Numerous details are rendered with globular elements. Groundline. The elegant depiction is inspired by hellenistic models. Attractive size and color of the stone. Slight wear marks.
U.K. private collection, Surrey.
