OPUS SECTILE FLOOR, C. 300 CE. VITTORIANO This marvellous floor in opus sectile was discovered in 1903, "somewhat damaged by fire", during clearance work in piazza Venezia for the main staircase of the monument to the first king of united Italy, Vittorio Emanuele II. Its large central emblema has a design of scales in the four marbles called the "Neronian quadrichromy": serpentino, porphyry, giallo antico, and pavonazzetto, with the usual pairing of serpentino with giallo antico and of porphyry with pavonazzetto. However, the wide band of floor around the central panel is particularly complex, with four horns in serpentino spinning outward from circles of porphyry and serpentino, separated by larger circles in pavonazzetto containing undulating cross-like shapes in giallo antico. The closest comparison is to the floor of the Senate not far away. But this design is unique. We know nothing of the building from which this was extracted, apparently without any archaeological notes or drawings, but the initial report does mention an adjacent room with a similar floor whose location and fate are unknown.
