A fine neoclassical Poniatowski carnelian intaglio signed Solonos, set in a gold frame. Diana Hecate killing a Titan.

19th century.

Stone 25 x 36 mm; mounting 28 x 39 mm; 10,59 gr.

The deity advances to the right, ready to strike a titan with flaming torches to kill him. The deity is dressed in a robe and cloak that rises into the air, to express the speed and violence of the duel. The titan prepares to throw stones. Below the baseline, the signature: ΣΟΛΩΝΟΣ. The gem is mounted in a 19th century gold frame.
