Roman Mosaics

Risan

Second-century Roman villa floors of geometric mosaics, with a rare image of the god of sleep.

This guide to the Roman Mosaics in Risan, on the Bay of Kotor, looks down at the floors of a second-century villa and at the nameless craftsmen who set them, cube by cube. It follows their palette of black, white and grey-blue, where each stone came from, and the rooms where Romans received guests, ate and slept. Best heard standing at the edge of the bedroom floor.
