An Undescribed Early Christian Ivory Diptych
Eric Maclagan
The Early Christian ivory diptych which, by the permission of owner, Mr. Andrews, it is my privilege to bring before Society almost entirely unknown. I have called ‘undescribed’, and might ‘unpublished’. But some twenty years ago a rather inadequate photographic reproduction did appear in first volume Professor Venturi's invaluable Storia dell' Arte Italiana . Since that date number archaeologists tried get sight diptych, but vain. And few brief notices been published Goldschmidt, Dom Leclercq, others, based on small not very clear half-tone block given without comment Venturi.
