IVORY KNIFE HANDLE, C2-C3 CE. MUSEO NAZIONALE DEL BARGELLO The popular passion for gladiators in the ancient Roman world crossed the boundaries of class. This ivory knife handle, a luxury item, shows a secutor, a gladiator armed with a shield which we see covering most of the body, here decorated with four quadrants each containing a four-petaled flower. He also had a leg greave and an arm protector for his sword arm. The most notable aspect of his armour was a distinctive helmet with many little eyeholes, which was rounded so as not to catch the net of the secutor's standard opponent, the retiarius, armed with a net and trident. This helmet, on the contrary, has a little finial at the top, for decorative purposes. It's a beautiful little object.
For a belated #ReliefWednesday, an ivory knife handle from the #Bargello in #Florence, dating to the C2 or C3 CE. The tiny figure is that of a #secutor or "pursuer", one of the specific roles of a #gladiator. Its survival is well-nigh miraculous. #AncientBluesky 🏺

Bargello wall hanging in earth tones from nearly black through brown, green, grey, cream.
A #bargello wall hanging that I call "Fire on the Savannah" -- pinned and ready for tacking. Not too happy with that grey batik in the borders, lacked what to pick up the rose hues in that floral, but time to move on from lessons learned. Otherwise a very fun project.

Dentro il Bargello c’è una stanza che sembra un tribunale, ma in realtà è un libro dipinto: la Cappella del Podestà, detta anche Cappella della Maddalena.

The #crochet #bargello blanket I made for my eldest, who is always complaining about being cold at university.
Bargello blanket I made for my eldest this Christmas.
There's the huge howling error, obviously, but it's supposed to be an 'everyday' blanket for his digs, so I'm trying to be relaxed about it...

In Piazza San Firenze nel 1975: altro che ZTL. Tra doppie file e parcheggi improvvisati, un vigile prova a rimettere ordine. Sullo sfondo il Bargello
