Theodora Cube

3D Model

Here is a model designed to give a rough (very rough!) idea of what Byzantine gold-glass mosaics look like as they catch the light. The image used here is a detail of the panel depicting the empress Theodora and her retinue in the apse of San Vitale, Ravenna.

The base photo is by Petar Milošević, and is used with his permission.
