pipistrellus:vinegardoppio:PLEASE LOOK AT THESE RIDICULOUS FUCKING LIONSThis is the earliest known tomb painting in Europe, and it’s in Veii, Italy. It’s a very, very early example of the funerary frescoes which the Etruscans would be remembered historically for. This tomb is known as the Tomb of the Roaring Lions and it is probably my favorite thing of all time. It’s also got some ducks, which were apparently super special to the Etruscans and nobody really knows why.sources: x x xthere are a gift from god specifically to me -- source link
