This delightful array of marine life is our pick for#MosaicMonday. Described by the museum as a mosaic of edible fish, one can only assume these creatures are searching for an exit to return to the Mediterranean!

Panel from a mosaic floor: edible fish from the Mediterranean area. It probably decorated a dining-room. The fish, squid, eel, and large crustacean are depicted against a dark blue background. © The Trustees of the British Museum; Asset number 266960001.
