Floor mosaic with the head of a satyr

Closeup of a floor mosaic with the head of a satyr surrounded by a ribbon and leaf motifs. Note his two small horns and his wreath of ivy leaves and ivy berries. From a Roman imperial villa which perhaps belonged to Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus.

 

From Genazzano, near Rome.

Antonine era (138 - 192 CE)
