Julian: A Sardonyx Intaglio
A finely modelled profile fills an oval stone or seal with a thick surrounding edge. Close cropping makes the relief-like modelling of the face especially prominent. The source identifies the subject as Julian and describes the reproduction as an enlarged photograph of a sardonyx intaglio in the Cabinet des Médailles.
