The cover story
I was always fascinated by the disaster of Pompeii as a child.
I remember seeing the gold bracelets and the casts of bodies in the National Geographic. It felt unworldly, mysterious and exciting - I don’t think I could contemplate the devastation as such as nine year old, but it was intriguing and ever since Pompeii has been on my bucket list to visit.
We took the local train from where we were staying on the Amalfi Coast (Vietri Sul Mare, highly recommend as a base to explore the whole region) on a late spring morning, I was overwhelmed by the site, the structures, the frescos, the colours and, especially, the mosaics.
This design was part of a column mosaic, found in the house of one of Pompeii’s elite (as I learnt by eavesdropping on a passing tour group).
