These elegant Roman jugs (ca. 200 A.D.)
were made in North Africa
and used in Roman Britain, illustrating the extent of political and
economic ties which were bound up by Roman roads, ships and above all,
Roman political stability.
The embossing quietly underscores the elegance of design and form in these pieces. (Ashmolean Museum, Photo by M. Markowski) |
