Title: Roman Mosaic Pavement: Sun
Caption: Detail of sun shape on the intricate pavement of the sanctuary (or presbytery) in Saint-Benoît-sur-Loire Abbey. The mosaic floor in polychrome marble is the oldest object in the church: dating from the 4th or 5th century during the Roman period. It was installed in the previous abbey church around 1000 and preserved in the present church.
