Summary[edit]

• English: Basilica of Sant'Apollinare Nuovo in Ravenna, Italy: "The Palace of Theodoric". Mosaic of a Ravennate italian-byzantine workshop, completed within 526 AD by the so-called "Master of Sant'Apollinare". After the defeat of Theodoric, the wall mosaics in the Palace and Cathedral were redone by the Byzantines to remove Gothic features. The figures in this mosaic were replaced by curtains, presumably due to lack of time. Several remnants of the earlier work are visible, such as a portion of an arm on the third pillar from the left.
• Italiano: Basilica di Sant'Apollinare Nuovo a Ravenna: "Il palazzo di Teodorico". Mosaico di scuola ravennate italo-bizantina, completato entro il 526 d.C. dal cosiddetto "maestro di Sant'Apollinare". Dopo la sconfitta del re goto Teodorico, i mosaici murali del suo palazzo e questi della cattedrale furono rifatti dai bizantini per cancellare ogni traccia dei precedenti dominatori. I dignitari Goti di questo mosaico furono frettolosamente rimpiazzati da tende, probabilmente per mancanza di tempo. Rimangono diverse tracce del mosaico precedente: per esempio un pezzo di un braccio sulla terza colonna da sinistra.
