| Ancient Rome Imperial Eagle AD 54 sardonyx cameo Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna |
The Eagle
He clasps the crag with crooked hands;
Close to the sun in lonely lands
Ring'd with the azure world, he stands.
The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;
He watches from his mountain walls
And like a thunderbolt he falls.
– Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1851)
