What it is made of

The source

The Engraved Bible

A bear up on its hind legs stealing a honeycomb (the Basel title page, 1569); Ezekiel's ophan, a wheel set inside another at right angles with eyes all round the rims; Dürer's four horsemen in a pile-up rather than a line; the ark as a crate with no prow, the tree with the serpent coiled round it, the two tablets with the top corner rounded off. And the way the Mozarabic Beatus painters drew: bands of flat colour, no depth, outsized eyes and beasts that look cut out with scissors.

Rome and the Arena

Smooth, rounded secutor helmets with two minute holes for the eyes; Thracian helmets topped with a griffin crest and a Medusa on the brow; greaves engraved with Jupiter, Neptune and Minerva; the retiarius's net and trident; the curved sica; the manica of leather wound round the arm. Around them, the oval of the amphitheatre seen from above, the hypogeum lying open like a honeycomb. And the lettering: beside each gladiator's name on the mosaics, a VICIT or a mark of death.
