EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Gems illustrating Cupid and Psyche, an engraving created by Richard Dagley in 1812. The artwork is a part of a private collection and portrays various scenes related to the mythological figures of Cupid and Psyche. In the top cameo, we see Cupid and Psyche depicted beautifully in a Florentine Museum gem. To the left, there is another gem showcasing Cupid burning a butterfly on cornelian, which belongs to Mr. Crusius. On the right side, Lord Algernon Percy's collection features Cupid seated on a shell with a butterfly. The copperplate engraving was done by D. Smith based on an illustration by Richard Dagley from his book "Gems, Selected from the Antique, with Illustrations". Published in London in 1804 by John Murray.
