Summary
[edit]DescriptionVilla romana del Casale - Peristilio quadrangolare (7831245868).jpg |
Piazza Armerina (EN), ITA - Dal vestibolo si accede al peristilio: il mosaico presenta qui una serie di ghirlande d'alloro includenti teste di animali di molte specie diverse (felini, antilopi, tori, capri selvatici, cavalli, onagri, cervi, arieti, un elefante e uno struzzo). L'orientamento delle teste cambia in due punti: in corrispondenza dell'ingresso dal vestibolo, e ai piedi della scala d'accesso al complesso della sala absidata sul lato orientale. Questo cambiamento aveva probabilmente la funzione di enfatizzare i due itinerari percorribili all'interno dell'edificio: quello privato, a sinistra dell'entrata, che conduceva alle stanze del lato settentrionale, e quello pubblico, verso la sala absidata sul lato est ed il nucleo del triclinio con peristilio ovoidale. Al centro del peristilio si trovava una grande fontana: due vasche semicircolari con il lato curvo rivolto simmetricamente al centro inquadravano una vasca di forma rettangolare allungata, che con due archi sui lati maggiori delineavano una circonferenza centrale. In asse col il vestibolo, appena oltre il porticato del peristilio, si trova un piccolo vano absidato, il "Sacello dei Lari", inquadrato da due colonne del peristilio e con pavimento a mosaico geometrico. Il motivo presenta due quadrati intersecati, ornati da una treccia semplice, che formano una losanga con foglia di edera al centro. La foglia di edera, simbolo dionisiaco e motivo decorativo d'ascendenza sasanide, ricorre frequentemente in numerosi pavimenti della villa. |
