About This Design

Medusa Head Sculptures Basilica Cistern Istanbul Tile

Medusa Head Sculptures Basilica Cistern Istanbul Tile

This is one of two Medusa Head sculptures that are used as pillar supports for the the Basilica Cistern buried in the underground of Istanbul, Turkey. This Cistern is a vast underground water storage cavern supported by 300 massive columns, including this one mysteriously supported by a Medusa head. This sculpture's origins are unknown though it is believed to have been taken from a Roman temple for use in constructing this massive water storage cistern built about 1500 years ago during the reign of Justinian. This Medusa head is massive, about the height of an adult and quite wide with all sides exquisitely sculpted to show the Medusa with a head of snakes and reputed to turn anyone she looks at to stone.

Really nice image fixed to the tiles in my shower as a background to a soap dish. This was to hide the marks left by a broken soap dish. Just used tile adhesive and white grout. I think it looks good, almost like the drips are falling from the soap dish. No probs. Nice image.

My heart skipped a beat when I found this collection of Art Nouveau designs. I have created a fireplace where there was none. Amazing. The tiles were exactly as depicted
