This photo of a mosaic showing the Great Hunt (scene of embarking) was taken in the summer of 1970 at Piazza Armerina in Sicily. Piazza Armerina is home to the Roman Villa del Casale and its famous mosaics, the 'finest mosaics in situ anywhere in the Roman world,' as described by UNESCO, which inserted it into its World Heritage list in 1997. Villa Romana was a lavish patrician residence built at the center of a huge latifundium (agricultural estate) at the end of the 4th century AD. It is thought to have belonged to a member of the Roman senatorial aristocracy, who traded in exotic animals.
