Engraved Gems

My former treatise, Engraved Gems, their Place in the History of Art, being largely illustrated and inconvenient in size, I have abridged the work and with new material prepared this volume. The various epochs of gem engraving from the earliest eras down to the XVIII. century are briefly described. Many people throughout the year cast passing glances at my glyptic collection in the Free Museum of Science and Art of the University of Pennsylvania. They express great admiration of the beautiful objects in stones of many colors and interesting designs. It was never intended to make only an attractive display; what I have always desired and hoped for was that a proportion of our visitors would recognize in my lifes work a contribution to science. It is a classified representation of the glyptic work of more than forty centuries, so carefully arranged that those who care to learn through the medium of those beautiful engraved stones, cylinders, seals, and 6 Gnostic tokens, may inform themselves intelligently on the science which these gems of all epochs so thoroughly exemplify. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
