Fascinating world of ancient #glass: an amazing #Roman glass garland bowl, that represents a peak of Roman glassmaker’s skill at producing vessels. Very few ancient vessels were made of large sections or bands of different colored glass, and this is the only known example that combines...🧵1/2

The picture shows a Roman glass bowl consisting of four large segments of colorless, purple, yellow, and blue glass. Applied to the interior of the bowl at the center of each segment a hanging garland.

Le vetrate più preziose.
Da solo nel buio, accanto all'abbazia, guardo le stelle e per qualche decina di minuti tutto il mondo diventa un ricordo lontanissimo, per un po' mi scordo di me e di tutti i miei limiti.
Una breve tregua prima di crollare di nuovo nella realtà nei modi più sconfortanti.
Le stelle brillano attraverso una delle finestre vuote dell'Abbazia di San Galgano.

En esa nada pura
donde vive el poema
estar como de tránsito,
de viaje, de fiesta, de visita…

Vivir en el poema
el otro lado del poema.
Vivir la vida del poema
en el continuo tránsito del yo.

This deep honey-yellow glass jug fairly glows with iridescence. Dark turquoise handles and spiralling trails provide contrast. Perhaps used for unguents, it was made in the eastern Mediterranean, probably in Roman Palestine. 🏺 #ancientbluesky

The timeless beauty of ancient glass!

My photo shows a Roman cobalt blue mould-blown glass scent bottle in the form of a (scallop?) shell. It has a cylindrical neck with a folded rim. There is a round sectioned handle at either side of the neck. Dimensions: height 8.5 cm, diameter 5.2 cm. It was bequeathed to the British Museum by Felix Slade in 1869.

A terracotta figurine of a dog standing on four legs, holding a small animal in its mouth. The dog has a slender body, pointed ears, and a slightly curved tail. The surface of the sculpture is rough and textured, with patches of white primer. The small animal in the dog's mouth appears to be another quadruped, possibly a hare or a smaller dog. The sculpture is displayed on a white surface against a neutral beige background.

Era come stare in uno stato dove c’è la guerra.
I nemici vestiti come gli amici.
Gli alleati come Conti di Montecristo.

che annodo alla nuca per i lunghi capelli
che non avrei pettinato

The so-called ‘Sappho’ fresco from #Pompeii

A beautiful Roman painting of a woman holding a writing tablet, with a stylus pen raised to her lips in thoughtful contemplation, 1st century AD.

#Archaeology
My photo shows a reproduction of the so-called Sappho Fresco, which is a famous Roman fresco from Pompeii. The original was on loan when I visited the Museo Arqueologico di Napoli. The portrait-style painting depicts a wealthy young woman holding writing implements. She wears a plain green tunic with a pinkish-browny-grey mantle covering her shoulders, large gold hoop earrings, and a gold wire hairnet beneath the rim of which emerge curls of hair which frame her face. In her left hand she holds a wax writing tablet and in her right hand she holds a black iron stylus pen which she rests against her bottom lip. She gazes in thoughtful contemplation. This fresco is known as the Sappho Fresco after the Greek Poet. On display National Archaeological Museum Naples

We found some of these, though without bronze. It was a very, very odd feeling. They are beautifully made, with multi-process craftsmanship. The sclera was white marble, carefully carved and smoothed to shape, with a high polish to the surface, and the corners of the eyes delicately painted 1/
An eye-inlay from an Egyptian coffin lies in the sand in the trench where it was found. It is made of white marble and onyx, and the iris is intensely shiny, reflecting the shapes of the excavators. Pieces of skull are in the background. Photo by Xander Sable. The eye-inlay from an Egyptian coffin on its small finds illustration sheet, with front, back and side illustrations and notes.

#Fascinating world of ancient #glass: a #Roman jug made of blue glass with splashed decoration in white, yellow and brown. The decoration was created by applying fragments of coloured glass to the surface of the vessel before it was fully blown. The technique was fashionable...🧵1/2
