The recently acquired intaglio ring by the British Museum features an unusual depiction of Diana Venatrix, beautifully engraved on a dark red carnelian, capturing the huntress's dual nature of love and death.
The intricate gold setting of the ring, although partially crushed and bent, highlights exquisite craftsmanship typical of the Roman era, showcasing a sophisticated blend of art and symbolism.
