Low tide with a castle on top of the rocks at the rear of the photo.  Coming towards the front are mud flats with some small boats waiting for the tide to rise, a narrow line of shingle, then a strip of dry sand, at the front is a large clump of yellow daisy like flowers.

The image depicts a tall arched stained glass window set against a dark backdrop. The window is composed of various colored panes, including blue, purple, and pink, arranged vertically. Light shines through the window, creating a bright, radiant effect. The light casts colorful reflections on the floor, forming a vivid pattern of colors. Snow particles are visible in the beam of light and on the ground, adding texture to the image. Several candles can be seen in the distance, their soft light complementing the glow from the window.

MARBLE PILASTER CAPITALS FROM THE PANTHEON, C. 125 CE. THE BRITISH MUSEUM

The whole attic register of the Pantheon's interior decoration was heavily debated from the C15 onward. Its combination of pilasters with simplified composite capitals like the ones we see here and coloured marble panels had no obvious relationship with the lower register. Some theorised that the attic was a late-antique substitution. In the 1750s, restoration work that had already significantly changed the marbles of the lower walls was extended to the attic and dome, and most of the marble revetment of the attic was found to be in a perilous condition, which crumbled when attempts were made to reattach it. In 1756-1757 the marbles of the attic were removed and heaped up in front of the portico to be disposed of. Some capitals ended up in the Vatican Museums and others made their way into foreign collections. A new, very simple attic decoration was completed by 1758, by the Sienese architect Paolo Posi, who received universally negative reviews. The French abbot of Saint-Non, visiting Rome in 1759, wrote: "now the building is no more than a large, round hall, a huge coffee-house amazing only for its shape and vastness".

#ReliefWednesday takes us to the #BritishMuseum to find four #pilaster #capitals from the upper register of the #Pantheon in #Rome, from c. 124 CE, after the whole band of decoration was removed in 1757 and replaced with a series of faux marble panels and ædicules. #AncientBluesky 🏺

A personification of Victory reclining languidly, framed within a temple. She has a palm leaf in her left hand, elbow resting on a globe, and holds a huge wreath with her right. The inscription is split into three with the name and titles of the emperor in the pediment, the reference to the legion in the wreath and the distance constructed in a tablet at the base. The boar shown running across the tablet was the emblem of Leg XX VV. (And maybe brags of how quickly the legion built their section?)

The slab marked the western end of the Wall near Old Kilpatrick.
