A black, white and green guilloche composition with a very approximate resemblance to a US dollar, that says "Tax the Rich." In smaller type at the lower left is "if you made a million dollars a year it would take a thousand years to become a billionaire."

HOSPITALIA MOSAIC, 118-124 CE. HADRIAN'S VILLA Attached to the core of the Republican-era villa inherited by Hadrian's wife Vibia Sabina is this large structure with ten rooms on the ground floor and steps leading up to a now-lost second floor on the same design. These are bedrooms for guests or staff who were senior but not especially grand: each room had three beds in it, and they shared communal latrines. The mosaic pavements, each room different, are in black and white. They all have the same design, a central square with vegetal and floral motifs, and three alcoves for beds, each one having the same geometric design, in this case an amazing series of black peltae and squares. The central mosaic is a pattern of conjoined circles whose leafy frames make them stealth guilloches, with splendid floral motifs contained in the circular and incurved octagonal white space.
Dazzling black and white #mosaic helps the week start properly on #MosaicMonday, this time at #VillaAdriana or #Hadrian's Villa at #Tivoli outside #Rome, in the guest quarters or #Hospitalia, for ranking but not top-ranked male guests. And look out for the stealth #guilloche! #AncientBluesky 🏺

STONE VASE WITH GUILLOCHE, C. 130 CE. HADRIAN'S VILLA, MUSEION This vase once decorated the Greek Theatre in Hadrian's Villa. Its "handles" are worn and broken, but may have been rams' heads. The "lid" (sculpted as part of the vase, so never openable) has a decoration of papyrus leaves, and the upper part of the vase has shallow curved fluting around it. The most notable element is the wide single band of guilloche, a series of overlapping circles with a braided edge. The guilloche was almost an obsession for Roman decorative arts and is found in every medium: sculpture, mosaic, and fresco. Though we see it here at its least complex, it can be doubled or tripled, it can separate and rejoin, and it can both link and divide different frames. The first guilloches can be found in a somewhat different form in Mycenæan art but recurs throughout ancient Greek and Roman art and all through the Middle Ages. It has accompanied us throughout history: it is the faithful hound of Western art. I just wanted to take a moment to appreciate it.
For #ReliefWednesday, a vase from #VillaAdriana gives me the opportunity to appreciate the #guilloche, an impeccably classical decoration, infinitely adaptable, loved by #Greeks and #Romans alike, yet not alien to #Celtic and #medieval art. Ladies and gentlemen, to the guilloche. #AncientBluesky 🏺
One of my first & favorite guilloche pieces. Made this on both a rose engine & a straight line for the center honeycomb like pattern. Was born out of a series of accidents which of course I cannot seem to recreate even when I try 🫠
