I wrote about it then that it is very unusual, I have never seen one that really resembles it. It is more allegorical: a lone lady in romantic Venice, dreamily beset by thoughts of love (the role of the cupids in the scene). Think I also remarked that without a gondolier in the picture there is something Lady of Shallot-ish about it. I find it very humorous - the cupids are a bit devilish.</p><p><br /></p><p>So many people find themselves with a cameo to sell while having little knowledge about them and little interest as well. They just want to get rid of it, don't take much care with evaluating it, then someone, such as yourself, with a good eye comes along and gets a bargain. Well done! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie58" alt=":joyful:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
