MOSAICS

Roman Mosaics Romans lived in houses called villas. The floors and walls of these Villas were decorated in elaborate mosaics. Mosaics showed everything from scenes of everyday life, to fantastic images from Roman and Greek mythology. Many Romans believed that more colourful mosaics would show people how wealthy they were!

How Romans made Mosaics First, an expert mosaic maker would draw a plan of the design and pattern. A small area of the floor at a time is covered in wet plaster. Why would they only do a small bit at a time?

The mosaic maker would then add small pieces of tile to the plaster The mosaic maker would then add small pieces of tile to the plaster. The tiles are laid according to the design. Why would they follow the design? When the mosaic was finished it would be polished. Why do you think they would polish the mosaic?

These are actual ROMAN MOSAICS.
