Early Christian Mosaic Floor
This geometric mosaic (4th c. AD), preserved in the Vatican Necropolis beneath St. Peter’s Basilica, reflects late Roman decorative traditions adapted into Christian burial contexts. Intricate patterns of interlacing bands and floral motifs symbolize eternal life and spiritual harmony, embodying the transition from pagan to Christian art in Rome.
