ALT My photo collage shows details of the black and white mosaic floor in the women’s changing room at the Central Baths, ancient Herculaneum. The mosaic depicts a marine scene featuring the sea god Triton, with a cherub, dolphins, an octopus and a squid (shown in photo at bottom right). Top photo shows a close-up of the octopus. My photo at bottom left shows a full view of the women’s changing room; mosaic floor with barrel ceiling, and benches on each side of the room with shelving above for clothing.
