Stock Photo: Temple Pediment with Gorgon's Head , Roman Baths Museum, Bath, England
Carving of a gorgon's head from the center of the pediment of the Temple of Sulis Minerva. The face, surrounded by wreaths and supported by winged victories, symbolizes Minerva and also resembles water gods like Oceanus and Neptune. It also recalls the sun, which may refer to the heat of the Sacred Spring. The owl in the lower right corner refers to the wisdom of Minerva. Roman Baths Museum, Bath, England, UK.
