EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from the 3rd century Roman civilization. The image captures a Roman tile with an intriguing detail - a distinct dog's footprint imprinted on its surface. This ancient relic was discovered at Fishbourne Roman Palace, located near the charming town of Chichester in Sussex, England. The vibrant colors and intricate design of this tile are beautifully preserved in this studio shot, allowing us to appreciate the craftsmanship of the Romans even after centuries have passed. It serves as a tangible reminder of their advanced civilization and their appreciation for artistry. As we gaze upon this fascinating object, we can't help but wonder about the story behind it. Was it accidentally left by a playful canine roaming through Fishbourne Roman Villa? Or perhaps it was deliberately created as part of an artistic mosaic or flooring pattern? Regardless of its origin, this artifact offers us a glimpse into daily life during that era – reminding us that dogs were not only companions but also present throughout history. It is thanks to dedicated individuals like CM Dixon who meticulously document these treasures that we can continue to learn from and admire them today.
