[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 3044624, member: 5833"]Glad to hear you plan to give it an outing from time to time, when outings become normal again. Either there is a painting out there that looks like this or there is a lot of artistic license at work. There are so many literary & historical sources of imagery that I do not know. Maybe we should put the cameo in a separate thread with the title 'What is this scene?' & submit it for the collective Antiquers brain to work on. You're making me want to see the other 8, but if you thought the 2 you showed me were the best of the lot, I would probably be disappointed. Jewellers always want to show you the big pretty ladies, [I]en habille[/I] with a diamond stuck on. Bor-ing. Yours has character as well as characters.[/QUOTE]
