VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This image depicts an ancient mosaic of a biblical scene featuring the figure Melchizedek. The central character, identified by the inscription above as "MELCHISEDEC, " is portrayed with a halo around his head, symbolizing sanctity. He stands behind an altar draped with a cloth and adorned with what appears to be bread and a chalice, elements that suggest the offering of communion. To the left of Melchizedek is a figure presenting a model of a city, which could represent Abraham's encounter with Melchizedek after returning from battle as described in Genesis 14:18-20. This person might be representing Abraham himself or possibly someone bringing offerings to Melchizedek. On the right side stands another robed figure who seems younger and holds out his hands in either acceptance or presentation; this individual may also be part of the narrative involving Abraham and Melchizedek. The Latin text below them likely provides context for the scene depicted but is partially obscured in this image. However, it seems to reference Psalm 110:4 ("Tu es sacerdos in æternum secundum ordinem Melchisedech"), which translates to "You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek. " The intricate detail on clothing and background patterns indicates high craftsmanship typical for mosaics from late antiquity or early Byzantine periods. The curtains framing this tableau give it an almost theatrical feel, emphasizing its narrative importance. Overall, this mosaic serves both as religious art and historical artifact reflecting early Christian iconography related to Old Testament themes.
