Alle Auktionen / Teppiche & Textilien / LARGE ROMAN GEOMETRIC MOSAIC
Ca. AD 1 - 200. A rectangular polychrome mosaic arranged as a carpet-like grid of square compartments in ivory and pale blue-grey, divided by bands of charcoal, ochre, and terracotta tesserae. Small cruciform motifs occupy the centres, while chequered intersections reinforce the ordered rhythm. The alternating colours create a shallow coffered, almost three-dimensional effect characteristic of early Imperial geometric pavements. Narrow black and white fillets separate the central field from a broad outer border of variegated chequerwork. Constructed in *opus tessellatum*, the design combines closely laid regular courses with smaller tesserae for the motifs and dividing lines. The surface is extensively abraded and several tesserae are fractured, displaying wear consistent with considerable age and prolonged use, although such features alone cannot establish authenticity. The composition and much of its original polychromy remain clearly legible. For similar see: G. Calza, Excavation results, Un Mosaico di Ostia, 1912, fig. 1 -2.
