topaz stones featuring a reverse intaglio of a cherub.
An homage to Raphael’s Putti from the Sistine Madonna (1512-14). Floating on diamond
clouds, these sculpted cherubs gaze dreamily at the heavens, embodying winged
innocence. Inspired by the children of Raphael’s model for Mary, their likeness frames
the painting’s bottom.
