Design for a Pendant

Henri Cameré (signed by artist), c. 1864 - c. 1894

This small pendant in neo-style consist of symmetrical architectural elements. In the design at the left are three temples fronts one on top of the other, with the goddess Fortuna and a man on horseback. Executed in lighter colours, they stand out distinctly against the blue background. The pencil drawing of the basic design is still clearly visible.
