This Roman mosaic portrays a captivating scene from ancient mythology, the wedding of Dionysos and Ariadne. Created in the 2nd century AD, this mosaic is a remarkable testament to the artistic skills of the Roman era. The mosaic features Dionysos, the Greek god of wine and revelry, standing beside Ariadne, the daughter of King Minos. Their wedding ceremony is beautifully depicted, capturing a moment of joy and celebration. The mosaic is capturing the expressions on the faces of Dionysos and Ariadne. The scene is enriched by the presence of Silenus, a satyr and loyal companion of Dionysos, who partakes in the festivities. The inclusion of Silenus and the satyr adds an element of whimsy and mirth to the mosaic.
