foxy Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 The architectural development of the Basilica of Aquileia, dedicated to the Virgin Mary started in the years immediately after 313AD. The entire floor is a wonderful colored mosaic of the 4th century. With 760 square meters the floor is the largest Paleo-Christian mosaic of the western world. They’ve installed a glass walkway so you can walk over parts of the floor. The apsidal frescos date back to the first half of the 11th century. + nycman, Cooper, + Just Sayin and 2 others 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
