Name/Title
Janus, earthenwareDescription
Janus was a Roman god and guardian of doorways that often could be found hanging outside the apothecary shop, its two faces used to demonstrate the “before and after” beneficial effects of the powders, lotions, and ointments inside. Incidentally, Janus was also the god of “beginnings” marking the start of an endeavor, and was the genesis of the name for the first month of the year, January.Condition
