A rare neoclassical onyx cameo signed by Teresa Talani. Head of Apollo.
Early 19th century.
Beautiful head of Apollo laureate facing right. The model is certainly the gold stater of Philip II (Macedonia, Amphipolis 340-328 B.C.). The cameo is signed TERESA TALANI F. Two layer agate. Beautiful execution. For comparison: Gabriella Tassinari, Teresa Talani, incisore di gemme in epoca napoleonica in LANX 18 (2014), pp. 48-128.
