The Partial HistoriansThe beauty of the garden fresco from Livia’s villa at Prima Porta is sublime. With lush fruits ripe for the picking, flowers in bloom, and birds flitting between the delights, the fresco offers a kind of Augustan version of paradise.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FrescoFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FrescoFriday</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AncientRome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AncientRome</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/History" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#History</a>

The Partial HistoriansThe amount of photos we possess where of us goofing off, far out weighs the polished shots.

Gordon AnthonyI’m delighted to announce that my latest novel, A Plague Of Emperors, is now available from Amazon in paperback & Kindle formats. This is Book 7 in the Sempronius Scipio series, taking the 3rd Century crisis of Rome to another level, with Scipio caught in the middle of intrigue, betrayals & war. I hope you’ll give it a try. Some favourable reviews would be much appreciated.

We see Dionysis leaning on a female figure who is rendered in a more archaic style. It is thought to be an early imperial Roman interpretation of a C4th BCE Greek piece.
