Roman Ruins Inspiration

For the past few years I have made my partner a calendar from photos I take on our Summer holiday. As we didn’t get to go away this year due to the pandemic, I had to choose pictures from my archive. My two choices were ‘romans’ or ‘football’ as I have to live with this calendar too I chose ‘romans’.

When browsing the pictures to select them for the calendar, I also came through a few that have got me thinking about how I can incorporate these into my embroidery work. These are all from Pompeii and Herculaneum which I visited in April 2017.
