Description:
A sophisticated 19th century cameo of a philosopher in classical garb with a robust beard, this gentleman is both distinguished and wonderfully rendered. Seemingly impossible to construct in this small scale, this delicate carnelian cameo boasts a true character face seen in profile with a knowing eye glancing to the east. We seldom find small scale cameos of this quality.
