Let's dance! #FrescoFriday returns us to the #domus of #Agrippa and #Julia demolished in the late C19 during works that, in straightening the #Tiber at the suggestion of #Garibaldi, destroyed 40% of the gardens of the #VillaFarnesina in #Rome as well as this #Augustan mansion. #AncientBluesky 🏺
FRESCO FRAGMENT, 30-20 BCE, FROM THE ROMAN VILLA OF THE FARNESINA. PALAZZO MASSIMO ALLE TERME The luscious colours, green and violet, of this woman's tunic and stola, and their near-weightlessness, denote luxury, as does all the decoration in this villa, which is widely thought to have belonged to Augustus' daughter Julia and her husband, Augustus' best friend Agrippa. This fragment comes from a long corridor with Egyptian motifs, celebrating the Roman conquest of Egypt, and this female figure, which survives from the waist down, is dancing, one foot lifted delicately off the ground, the other poised on its toes. She might be a Maenad, or perhaps a devotee of the goddess Isis whose worship involved dance. Her swirling draperies, even after many centuries in the mud of the Tiber riverbank, invite us to join the dance, showing the level of expertise reached by Roman painters in the time of the first emperor.
