Description: Detail of mosaic floor decoration from Pella, Macedonia (in present-day Greece). c. 300 BCE. Pebbles, central panel 10'7-1/2" × 10'5" (3.24 × 3.17 m). Opulent floral borders known as Pausian designs frame a mosaic floor from a palace at Pella (Macedonia). The scene of the Stag Hunt by Gnosis shows modeled figures that are all the more impressive because they are comprised of natural pebbles, not uniformly cut marble.
