FLOOR MOSAIC FOR LLHUROSCIAN ROOM (Reconstruction) | circa 1984-91 | Photo by Ann Cady, 2024 | ©2026 Norman Daly Art: The photo depicts a large fragment of a floor mosaic showing two stylized figures on a golden-yellow background. The left figure (Token of Holmeek) resembles an abstract shape with blue, red, and circular elements, while the right figure (a Dwarf Monster) has horn-like protrusions and circular eyes, outlined in blue and red. Above the figures, a decorative border of alternating red and white triangles enhances the design. The mosaic is set against a dark background that accentuates the vivid colors and intricate details of the ancient floor.
