"Cybele Opposing Vesuvius to Protect the Cities of Stabia", Francois Eduard Picot

Cybele is an Anatolian mother goddess. In Rome, she became known as Magna Mater ("Great Mother"). There she enjoyed a cult after the Sibylline oracle saw her as a key ally in war against Carthage.

On here's Dido, joint ruler of Phoenician Tyre, driven out by her dastardly brother Pygmalion, who'd killed her husband. She bravely led other refugees to found a new city at Carthage. Before Roman ideologues got involved there was no Aeneas in her story.

"Dido", a new commissioned illustration of the legendary founder and queen of Carthage. I enjoyed researching artifacts and styles from Phoenician culture - lots of Greek, Syrian, Egyptian and other influences.
Also note the reference to the Trojan war in the wall paintings ✨

We’re celebrating with the gorgeous Dominus Julius Mosaic from Carthage.

Dating to the late C4th–early C5th CE, the mosaic captures the daily life of the elite across three registers with a dwelling at the centre.

This piece is held in the Bardo National Museum.
