Amulet Carved in Intaglio (Incised)

Byzantine (Egypt), 6th–7th century CE

Inscriptions identify the subject of this amulet as the Woman with the Issue of Blood (Mark 5:25–34; Luke 8:43–48). On the reverse a woman stands in the orant (prayer) pose. Hematite was believed to stop the flow of blood and was a favorite medium for amulets related to female reproductive health and menstrual problems.

Welcome Back (2023) edition of 6 intaglio etching

---

Another print featuring Bluebell Littleears! literally 3/4 projects from this class are bluebell-centric lmao you can really tell I had her on the mind

Had a lot of fun with the textures and stuff... I think I should've reversed it made the darker part the foreground not the background lol but alas!

I actually quite enjoyed doing etchings! They weren't as well liked by the ppl in my class, and I hate the smell lol but I LOVED the part where you're gently wiping the ink off with tarlatan I really got a good feel for it it was great... I love lil repetitive task hehe

(posting all this stuff on this blog is making me realize I have another piece titled welcome back tho lol whoops)

Processional Cross, Spanish, ca. 1150–75 (x)

This cross conveys the luxury found within churches that dotted the Christian kingdoms of northern Spain during the Middle Ages. It comes from a twelfth-century church fifty miles east of Oviedo, once the capital of the kingdom of Asturias. The cross shows a crowned, crucified Jesus flanked on the cross’ arms by the Virgin Mary and Saint John. An angel appears at the top, as Adam rises from his grave at the bottom. A rock crystal above Jesus’ head covers a cavity that still holds an unidentified relic. Gilded filigree bars attached to each of the arms of the cross served as settings for an array of gems, including antique intaglios. Only two remain—one showing an ancient figure of Victory, and the other a male nude with a fish and spear—both prized embellishments suitable for a sumptuous object. A Latin inscription on the reverse reads: “In honor of the Holy Savior: Sanccia [Sancha] Guidisalvi had me made.” The feminine ending of Sanccia indicates that the donor, or possibly the goldsmith, was a woman.

want to add punches to my intaglio practice, alphabet ones would be awesome but probably wont have luck finding a set where the letters arent reversed (so theyll punch in reverse, to print reversed, aka right side around.. . . .hmm)

I just saw the image of the ring you reposted, and it brought to mind my binge-research into rings like that!

Feel free to ignore this, but u think that may be a reverse intaglio? An image is painted or carved into the back of a gemstone, and then fixed into the ring itself - which gives the illusion of something 3D encased inside the gem! Like the inverse of a cameo - it’s on the backside rather than the front.

If anyone wants to correct me on this, feel free. I’m not a pro, but the image gave me happy rambling feelings.

:)

I honestly don't know. I just thought it was gorgeous and wanted to share it. 💖
