Carved Ram’s Horn Cup with Lions and Mounted Rider at the Walters Art Museum, USA.
The exterior of this piece is intricately carved in low relief with a figure of a mounted nobleman and heraldic lions among leaf rinceaux. The cup terminates in a carved bust.
Little is known about this artifact, though this is thought to be from either Asia or Africa, seventeenth-century collectors often could not be sure where objects obtained from sea captians and traders actually came from.
