Jordan

So, I was almost certain that I would be able to find several examples of sun images in Jordan, but Petra was the only place I could find a sun image (the one above the cock). This dates to the Roman mosaic's. It is beautiful.

  1. So beautiful.....I love this type of mosaics...actually the colours of this work reflects the real colours of the land; Jordania....I remember; I've been there in the middle 80's...85; sand...golden brown , all grey shades!

  2. What a beautiful mosaic - and wonderful idea for a blog. I haven't seen the sun where I am in weeks...
