Glyptic, A.i.2179

Description

A pen drawing on a card mount shows one scarab seal from three views. At the top is a low side profile with a domed upper edge, lower left is the back of the scarab with a dividing line down the middle, and lower right is the flat base with an oval engraved frame containing a small beetle flanked by curved marks. A number label sits below the drawings, and handwritten notes appear along the bottom edge of the mount.
