Dar Buc Ammera mosaic
#4
Thanks Jonas,
It's about time that some decent images were out there from the Zliten mosaic. As you say a little on the small side but better than what's been available so far. I've done a few examples of gladiator mosaics but without the clarity to see each individual tesserae they've all turned out a bit Mickey Mouse. The recent gladiator mosaic had a few poor quality photos in 'Minerva' magazine but these were taken at an angle and in bright light. It's now in the Leptis Magna Mosaic Museum and closely guarded against people taking photos of it, apparently it has sheets of plywood over it which I assume are only removed in the presence of the museum staff but I may pop out there next year and see if it's possible to get some decent shots, (all strictly legit, of course!) If I manage to get any I'll post them up.

Asking me to tile your bathroom is like asking Vermeer to creosote your shed ;-)
