Roman Patterns by Sam Baer
A sumptuously illustrated reference book featuring decorative patterns taken from the buildings, mosaics and jewellery of Ancient Rome. Readers can discover mosaic portraits of the Emperor Justinian and Empress Theodora, the masks from a Roman play, a carved fresco of the gods and more. Each page includes fascinating information about where each piece of art came from, as well as a small example of the colours used in the original. Includes internet links to websites to find out more about Roman life, artefacts and art.
Sam Baer grew up on the tiny island of Jersey before setting off on adventures in not-quite-so-tiny England. Since 2011, he's been writing books about everything from imps and elves to Victorian fashion. It's a dream job - almost as good as being a superhero.
