This is a painted canvas floorcloth made to imitate the tile mosaic floor that were found in Pompeii and Herculaneum. The composition is original, but the individual elements are each lifted from existing Roman mosaics.
The piece is approximately 5’ x 5’ and is done in acrylic paint on prepared canvas, then sealed with a durable, but flexible varnish.
