A neoclassical double-layered cameo. Paris.
18th century.
15x22x5 mm
The young man is facing right and characterized by his typical hairstyle surmounted by the phrygian hat. His eye accentuated by a drilled tool for the pupil, raises up the look, and the thick lids suggest a certain seriousness and gravity. The curly locks framing the forehead and the face are well-rendered with the use of this coloured layer of the stone in contrast with the whiteness of the face.
