For #FrescoFriday a glimpse into Terrace House 2 at #Ephesus, Turkey. The luxurious residential complex from the #Roman period was built on a slope, that had been terraced. It consists of seven separate dwellings.

Loving this fragment that shows an octopus seemingly winning a show down with an eel and possibly taking out a large prawn (or relation!) at the same time.

Caught this beautiful fragment of a number of birds in a tree with my own eyes yesterday. This was once part of a funerary fresco from Paestum c. C4th BCE.

#FrescoFriday : The frescoed "Winter guestroom" of the Roman Villa of Antandros.
The room has a spectacular floor mosaic but it is so much covered with dust that the motifs are barely recognized...

This delicate piece depicts Phoebe seeking to reassure Latona and Niobe; meanwhile Niobe’s daughters Hilearia and Agle play knucklebones, unaware of their imminent death…
This piece was painted on marble and each figure provided with a name in ancient Greek. It is also signed by the artist who lists themselves as Alexander of Athens.
Image slightly enhanced to bring out the contrast.
