介绍（中）	浮雕是在坚硬的物质上雕刻的小雕塑，如石头、珊瑚、玻璃或贝壳。通常，浮雕是由具有两层或多层固有颜色的材料雕刻而成的，允许雕塑家在浮雕人物和背景之间形成对比。古代古典世界的宝石匠以高超的技艺雕刻了硬石浮雕，在19世纪，当一切考古都盛行时，这门艺术得到了复兴。尽管古典场景和神话人物是维多利亚时代客串演员消费者和制造商最喜欢的主题，但历史人物和当代人物的肖像（如威廉·莎士比亚或弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔）以及个人委托肖像都很受欢迎这幅肖像浮雕胸针于1948年由弗雷德里克·马歇尔二世（Frederick Marshall Jr.）捐赠给大都会。浮雕由女王海螺贝壳雕刻而成，镶嵌在一个金色框架内，呈缠绕的常春藤藤状。据捐赠者介绍，这幅肖像描绘了他的父亲弗雷德里克·马歇尔，是一位在新奥尔良工作的无名法国人雕刻的。
介绍（英）	Cameos are small sculptures carved in relief on a hard substance such as stone, coral, glass, or, as here, shell. Commonly, cameos are carved from materials with two or more inherent layers of color, allowing the sculptor to create contrast between the relief figures and background. Hardstone cameos were carved with great skill by lapidaries of the ancient classical world, and the art enjoyed a revival during the nineteenth century, when all things archaeological were in vogue. Though classical scenes and mythological beings were the favorite subject for Victorian cameo consumers and manufacturers, portraits of historic and contemporary persons (e.g. William Shakespeare or Florence Nightingale), as well as commissioned portraits of individuals enjoyed popularity. This portrait cameo brooch was donated to the Metropolitan in 1948 by Frederick Marshall Jr. The cameo is carved out of a queen conch shell and is set in a gold frame in the form of intertwining ivy vines. According to the donor, the portrait depicts his father, Frederick Marshall, and was carved by an unknown Frenchman working in New Orleans.
