Cameo or intaglio, Napoleon. Glass. France, 1805. Red glass cameo with a series of inscriptions linking it to Napoleon Bonaparte and to works and prizes from academies and institutes of Fine Arts, adding the date 1805. Note the presence of the French emperor, dressed “in the classical manner”, holding a laurel wreath and accompanied by a winged male figure. This type of piece was very common during the government of Napoleon Bonaparte, who often used visual references taken from Imperial Rome for works of his time.
