This print showcases a mesmerizing mosaic titled "Mosaic with goblet, parrot and doves; work from Pompeii" housed in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples. The artwork itself dates back to the First Imperial Period of ancient Rome, specifically the 1st century AD. The mosaic is an exquisite display of Roman artistry, depicting various elements of nature and civilization. At its center stands a beautifully crafted goblet, symbolizing indulgence and luxury. Surrounding it are vibrant representations of parrots and doves, their colorful feathers adding life to the scene. These avian creatures represent freedom and peace within this ancient European civilization. Amidst this natural setting lies a pomegranate tree bearing fruits, signifying fertility and abundance.
