馃悋A Roman charioteer for the ages 馃

What do good rabbits do in their spare time? Why it鈥檚 duck chariot racing! Purported to have been found at Hadrian鈥檚 villa in Tivoli, this scene sets the stage for great animal rivalries on the chariot racing circuit!

The mosaic panel shows a rabbit as charioteer, holding the reins while two ducks pull the chariot. The rabbit鈥檚 look of fierce determination is evident. The scene is framed by a simple geometric border with decorative diamond elements in each corner and a red oval in the middle top and middle bottom.
