This book concentrates not on the figurative panels but on the geometric borders and patterns with which virtually all floors and corridors were decorated. Robert Fields has collected examples from many different sites and the book is arranged as a series of step-by-step drawing exercises. Experiencing the way the design elements are linked together is undoubtedly the best way to appreciate how inventive and skillful those ancient artists were.

Good and Brief,
This review is from: Geometric Patterns from Roman Mosaics (Paperback)
The book is a good primer into the subject of Roman mosaic geometric patterns. The patterns are easy to copy and enlarge. The illustrations would be good for drawing or used as a pattern for mosaics.

This review is from: Geometric Patterns from Roman Mosaics (Paperback)
As was declared, there are some popular roman patterns , tips how to copy them and enlarge. This is not a book with a lot of inspiring photos or a wide range of patterns. But for beginners in mosaic it is a good source for practice.
