This 1818 portrait of Lord Teignmouth by T.R. Poole is a fine example of a cameo, a type of relief sculpture often created from layered gemstones or, as in this case, a plaster cast. This piece is framed in a circular frame and shows a bust-length profile of Lord Teignmouth, a prominent figure in British society of the time. Cameos were popular throughout history as personal mementos and expressions of artistic skill.
