Fruit_Mosaic_-_Cubicle_with_the_Fruit_Mosaic_-_Villa_Romana_del_Casale_-_Italy_2015.jpeg

The front room has a geometric mosaic dominated by 3×3 twelve pointed stars each formed by three intertwined squares made of guilloches in red, green and yellow. Within each star is a laurel garland, golden leaves on red background or green leaves on black, with an image of fruit, such as grapes, figs, melons and pomegranates inside. Twelve parallelograms around each star fill most of the remaining space, leaving four hexagons.

We humbly ask for your help. We need your support to keep Mused running.

We're the largest independent hub of digital cultural heritage, and we survive on donations of about $30 USD. Less than 1% of people donate. If everyone reading this donated $5, our fundraiser would be done within a day!

We support training and providing technology to the communities that take of the monuments where we work to digitize their own cultures. For the price of a cup of coffee, you can continue preserving cultural heritage for future generations.

Thanks for reading, and we hope you'll consider donating. — Luke Hollis, Cofounder, Mused
