Pinsteps. Paphos mosaics
Places to visit in Пафос. Languages: ru, he, en

In this room, the entire floor is covered with the plot of the Triumph of Dionysus. This is one of the largest rooms in the house, and it seemed to be a dining room or a ceremonial hall. Dionysus “trumped” his “campaign” to India — a plot clearly inspired by the Roman imagination. Nearby images of the Dioscuri brothers - Castor and Pollux - remember the myth of Leda and Zeus from the house of Eon? Yes, everything is connected in the world of gods, fairy tales and mysteries. The peacock is the most beautiful work in this mosaic, and Dionysus is seated on a chariot drawn by panthers. Translated with Google Translate
