Pompeii Mosaic
Good to get back to Museums.
The Legion of Honor in San Francisco is hosting a collection of items from the aftermath of the eruption of Vesuvius in 79CE. Well worth viewing.
This mosaic was flat on the floor as you entered a rich merchants foyer. Like walking over the Mediterranean Sea and viewing the marine cornucopia below.
The mosaic identifies edible species including an octopus, a lobster, squid, shrimp, anchovies, eel and other fish.
Worth viewing as large as possible, to better see the
detailed work in colored stone. Two thousand year old pixels.
