Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Mosaic should be read as:
NAVIC(ulari) TVRRITANI (perhaps: L(ibisones)). The ship, the only object that is depicted, is moved to the upper left, so that frame and ship interact with each other. The reality might be that of a window through which the ship is seen, The thick black band suggests a thick window frame, i.e. a thick wall. Because we are on the quays and because the lighthouse is depicted so often on the square, we could be inside the lighthouse. Suetonius and Pliny the Elder use the word turris when describing the lighthouses of Alexandria and Portus, so the depiction may be a visual word game with Turris Libisonis. |
