A large agate intaglio set in a gold ring. Allegorical scene.
First half of 17th century.
Stone 23 x 27 mm; ring size 16 x 19 mm; 10,64 gr.
The scene consists of two female figures. On the left, a draped figure holds his robe over a small burning urn in a votive attitude; on the right, a partially draped female figure holds a winged victory with a laurel wreath in her right hand. The scene seems to reveal a votive meaning, perhaps for a military victory. Attractive variegated stone color. Typical style of early 17th century. Italian atelier, probably north Italy (Bottega Cisalpina).
Provenance: UK private collection.
