D. , this exquisite piece of Roman civilization depicts an intense gladiator fighting against a fierce tiger. The level of detail and craftsmanship is truly awe-inspiring, as every intricate element has been meticulously created. The mosaic captures the essence of ancient Roman culture, specifically highlighting the thrilling spectacle of gladiatorial combat that took place in circuses during that era. It serves as a powerful reminder of the aggression and bravery displayed by these skilled fighters who risked their lives for entertainment. The artist skillfully portrays the intensity of this battle scene, with the gladiator wielding his spear against the formidable tiger. The horizontal composition adds to its visual impact, drawing viewers into this historic moment frozen in time.
