Cameo with Sacrifice of a Bull c. late 18th century

This small cameo, made by the Wedgwood Manufactory in the late 18th century, depicts the sacrifice of a bull. The white figures of three men, rendered in the Neoclassical style, are silhouetted against a vibrant blue background. The central figure appears to be a priest, holding a sacrificial knife while standing beside a bull. The cameo is a miniature work of art, measuring only 1.7 × 2.5 cm, and was likely intended for personal use as a piece of jewelry or a decorative object.
