Just like this with me! ... for some reason I've never seen this before! ...from a fresco at Pompeii .... as fresh and striking as if it was painted yesterday rather than 2100 years ago ... colours and perspective and the direct gaze of the subject just timeless. Love it!

Unless it has been restored this is not the original but a faithful copy in a museum in Japan.
The original was in much poorer condition.

That takes nothing away from it being an amazing piece of art.
