🌸Flora🌸

Sydney feels like it’s jumped straight from winter to summer these last few days, but really it’s Spring in the air.

This fresco fragment is often identified as the goddess Flora and was found in the Villa of Ariadne in Stabiae. Now held in the MAN Napoli.

✨Paris and Helen✨

In this scene from the ‘House of Jason’ in Pompeii. We see Eros in a doorway apparently having engineered the meeting of Paris and Helen in Sparta. What happens next will shock you!

Not sure if it’s just the vagaries of time, but neither Paris nor Helen look pumped for this rendezvous…
