Alle Auktionen / Schmuck und Edelsteine / Charming Shell Cameo Goddess Flora as Pendant, Around 1875
The Roman heaven of the gods of antiquity knew many deities, for every conceivable concern and with the most diverse responsibilities. The goddess Flora, young, beautiful, graceful, was the goddess of spring, and of flowers. Artists portrayed Flora in a manner similar to a Greek springtime glory, as a graceful maiden adorned with flowers - and this is precisely the form in which we encounter her in this cameo. Rendered in profile, the goddess looks to the left. Around her shoulders she wears the classical garment the peplos. Last but not least, the lush floral decoration of the hair made of manifold and densely filled blossoms inspires. The height of the detailed depiction creates a rich play of light and shadow and gives it an amazing depth. Presumably, the well-preserved piece of jewellery once came in the luggage of a traveler to the north and should keep alive here the memory of the sunny south with its lush flowers. The cameo, cut around 1875, is set in a frame of gilded silver and can thus be worn as a pendant.
