EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite floor mosaic, dating back to approximately 200 AD, was discovered in a Roman villa near Sentium, now known as Sassferrato, in the Marches region of Italy. The central figure of this masterpiece is Aion, the god of Eternity, depicted as an elderly man with a long beard and holding a scepter adorned with a wheel. Aion is surrounded by a vibrant zodiac wheel, symbolizing the cyclical nature of time and the passage of the seasons. The goddess Tellus, the personification of the Earth, is seated at the bottom of the mosaic, emphasizing the importance of the natural world in ancient Roman culture. The four seasons are also represented, with personifications of Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn depicted as women holding symbols associated with their respective seasons. The sprouting foliage of the trees encircling the mosaic further highlights the beneficial change of the seasons. This intricate work of art is now housed in the Glyptothek in Munich, Germany, a museum dedicated to ancient sculptures and decorative arts. The mosaic's intricate design and mythological themes showcase the rich cultural heritage of the Roman civilization and their deep connection to the natural world and the passage of time.
