Emu egg decorated with a rooster and flowers. Japan, Meiji period, 1890-1900

Museum: https://www.agsa.sa.gov.au/collection-publications/collection/works/emu-egg-with-rooster-and-flowers/34394/

The image features an intricately decorated ostrich egg. The egg's surface is textured and dark, providing a rich backdrop for the detailed artwork. The central focus is a rooster, depicted in a golden hue, with its feathers and tail feathers intricately detailed. Surrounding the rooster are golden leaves and flowers, adding to the naturalistic theme. A white flower stands out among the golden foliage, providing a contrast in color. The overall design is symmetrical, with the rooster positioned centrally, and the surrounding elements arranged to create a balanced composition. The craftsmanship is evident in the fine details and the use of gold and white inlays, highlighting the rooster and floral elements against the dark background.

3rd century BC mosaic excavated in the ancient city of Antioch. The skeleton leaning against a wine jug and a serving of bread, holding a glass with a bone in one hand, has a simple message to its viewers: "Be cheerful, enjoy life."

The image depicts a mosaic featuring a skeleton reclining on a cushion, with its right arm raised and holding a small cup. The skeleton is centrally positioned against a dark background, with the text "ΕΥΦΟΡΟΥ ΕΥΝΟΕ" above it, rendered in white mosaic tiles. To the left of the skeleton, there is a depiction of a red vase with a narrow neck and a golden circular object, possibly representing bread or a flower. The mosaic is framed by a brown border, and the overall color scheme includes black, white, red, and gold. The skeleton's ribcage and skull are clearly defined, and the mosaic tiles are small and meticulously arranged to create the image.

Almost 2,000 years old Roman children's shoes. The object was found in the ruins of Palmyra (central Syria).

The image shows two small, burnt shoes displayed in clear plastic cases. The shoes appear to be made of leather and are significantly damaged, with large holes and frayed edges. The left shoe has a visible lace loop and shows signs of wear and tear, including a burnt interior. The right shoe has a similar design with multiple holes and a burnt exterior. Both shoes are held by a person's hand, with the fingers visible in the background. The shoes are presented in a way that suggests they are artifacts or historical items, possibly for preservation or display purposes.

I visited Robert Haus, a national neon treasure two days ago in St. Cloud, Minnesota.
I have known him online for years, and he moved from Alaska so now he is slightly easier to visit.

Robert has probably the best collection of historic neon artifacts, especially when it comes to old bending equipment, transformers, catalogs, and other difficult to find oddities. "Neon Archaeology" is his thing and his blog catalogs his journeys,

https://www.novioljourneys.com/

His setups were impressive- he has very comprehensive radio and electrical knowledge around neon bombarding systems. FOCI is lucky to have him around. I gave him some hand pulled tubing to play with in exchange for some coffee beans he roasted and some really old rare electrodes. It was so nice to meet him and his wife.
