This erotic scene is one of hundreds of exceptional mosaics found at the Roman Villa del Casale outside of Piazza Armerina. The lovers’ embrace is located on the floor of what is thought to be a bedroom of the expansive estate that was constructed between the 3rd and 4th century AD. #experiencesicily #lovers #amanti #kiss #bacio #villadelcasale #roman #romano #piazzaarmerina #sicily #sicilia #sizilien #siciliabedda #italy #italia #italien #sicilytourism #sicilytravel #ig_sicily #siciliaph #siciliafoto #fotosicilia #igerssicilia #instasicilia #ig_sicily #igfriends_sicilia #gf_italy #happyvalentinesday #mosaic #mosaico #mosaics #mosaichi #antico #ancient #ancientroman
