A roman agate intaglio. Two armed pygmies near herm.
1st century A.D.
10 x 14 x 4,5 mm
A pygmy armed with a spear and a shield advances to the left, towards a seated companion, armed only with a shield, near a herm. Ground line. The two little characters seem to dialog. Scene probably inspired by a Nilotic iconography (mosaic).
U.K private collection
