#MosaicMonday

Escape the confines of those pesky baskets that try to hold you back! Be like the fish and the sea creatures: flee to freedom!

This C2nd CE mosaic comes from the triclinium (dining chamber) from a villa in Sousse.

Thanks for posting this intricate mosaic!

FWIW in case someone is interested in learning more about Sousse (in modern Tunisia): it was ancient Hadrumetum/Iustinianopolis: https://pleiades.stoa.org/places/324716
