Glyptic (A.I. 2177)
Description
The mount holds two photographs of one stone scarab. The upper print shows the beetle from the side, with ridged wing cases and a smooth rounded underside. The lower print shows its flat engraved base, with a figure in profile and a hatched border along the bottom edge, and the print has cracked, pale blue patches at its edges where the mount is damaged.
