EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable mosaic from the Roman civilization dating back to the 1st century BC. The intricate artwork, measuring 58x50 cm, was discovered in Santa Maria Capua Vetere, Caserta province, Italy. It depicts an array of birds perched on a basin alongside a majestic panther. The mosaic's vibrant colors and meticulous details transport us back in time to ancient Rome during the Republican Age. As we gaze upon this archeological artifact, we are reminded of the rich history and cultural significance it holds. The image captures a moment frozen in time – an exquisite representation of animal themes prevalent during that era. The juxtaposition of delicate avian creatures with the powerful presence of the panther creates an intriguing contrast. Set against the backdrop of Italy's Bay of Naples, this vertical composition evokes a sense of tranquility and serenity. One can almost imagine ancient Romans enjoying their day by this basin, perhaps even using it as a drinking bowl for water. As we admire this piece from afar, devoid of any human presence, it serves as a poignant reminder that civilizations come and go but leave behind remnants that tell stories about our past. This mosaic is not just an artistic masterpiece; it is also a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of those who lived centuries ago in Caserta province.
