label: Description
content: Vase with narrow mouth and two ring handles. The vase is decorated with rosettes set with triangular coffering, gadrooning, laurel leaves, and garlands. At the center of the vase is a Roman imperial profile portrait. The vase is elevated on a simple, low plinth. The plate is signed and numbered, but the signature is partially burnished out; one can just barely see "Beauvais inv s".
