| Abstract: | This paper describes a glass opus sectile panel excavated at Corinth in 1981. The building in which it was found is situated east of the theater and is one of a suite of structures thought to have been destroyed shortly before A.D. 300. The author explores the subject matter of the panel (four fish swimming within a border of interlaced, crossed squares) with respect to a broad range of Roman decorative arts, and suggests that the panel may originally have been intended as wall decoration. | |
