Better on the wall, more prominent. They are skilled artisans to be sure, as is your work Steve. Robin.

Wall mosaics are actually much easier to view...

Thanks Pats and Robin.
The Mosaic ended up on a wall in Sousse Museum, Tunisia, where I took this photo back in the spring of 2004 and if you ever go to Tunisia, do find time to visit Sousse Museum for its collection of Mosaic, wasn't much else there and its far larger with massive collection of Mosaics at the Bardo Museum in Tunis. and don't forget to visit the Roman Amphitheatre at El Djem. Star Wars fans will no doubt be tempted to go into the desert to see what's left of the film set of Tatooine ! Lots of Roman remains to be seen there, such as the Roman Carthage. Tunisia was popular with tourists until 2015 Islamic attack killing 38 tourists.

The Mosaic depicts a naked Neptune, hence the strategically place figure, as don't want someone complaining and getting post removed again, in his Biga, being drawn by Seahorses.

Clever use of the mosaic pic, Robin. At first I thought it was the TG mat. Good one!

The TG mats are very good. I think I have around a dozen. Robin.

I do have that TG mosaic mat and a couple of the other ones myself Robin, but decided as it was just a quick set up to use the photo instead as otherwise I'd have to spend more time looking for appropriate walls.
