"Cameo of a Gentleman" is a small, delicate white cameo sculpted by Erastus Dow Palmer in the mid-19th century. The cameo depicts a man's profile in a classic, oval shape. The work is reminiscent of Roman cameos and is a fine example of the neoclassical style that was popular in the 19th century. The work is currently located in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
