Nikki Vellidis (Oxford): From Myth to Mundane: Mosaics in Imperial Era Greece
Nikki Vellidis is fourth-year DPhil student in classical archaeology at the University of Oxford, funded by the Onassis Foundation and Leventis Foundation and supervised by Professor Peter Stewart. Her thesis, "A Spatial Analysis of the Built Environment Surrounding Mosaic Pavements in Imperial Period Greece and Asia Minor," aims to analyse how architectural settings of mosaic pavements affect how the mosaic is viewed. The methodology of this thesis combines traditional art history analysis and newer computational analysis, such as 3D modelling. She previously earned an MA degree in classical studies from Columbia University under the supervision of Dr. Francesco De Angelis. Her thesis, "Beware of Envy: A Reconstructive Study of the Mosaics of the Roman Villa of Skala," focused on understanding the architectural context surrounding two Roman mosaic pavements from the island of Kefalonia.
This talk focuses on the figural decoration found in mosaic pavements from the Imperial Period in modern Greece. It aims to provide an overview of the popular iconography depicted on tessellated pavements – ranging from the realm of the mythical to surprisingly mundane. Greece has a long history of mosaic pavements and, therefore, a long tradition from which to draw inspiration. This tradition combined with the influence of the new Imperial rule under which the Greeks were living to create pavements unique to this area of the Empire. By examining the diverse iconography depicted in these mosaics, we uncover fascinating connections between tradition, myth, everyday life, and the Imperial context of the mosaics.
