How much of the full mosaic is this? It's a great picture, but it's a bit hard to judge how much of something is enough when you don't know what the full thing is. Adam Cuerden(

Adam Cuerden: I'll try to piece it together from other pictures, since I'm having trouble finding any picture of the whole thing.
Here you can see one end. The zodiac symbol on the right is what appears in the nominated picture. Then
this one (not mine) shows the rest of the way down, starting with the other zodiac symbol depicted in the nominated image (on the left). Taking straight-on shots of the whole area would not be possible, as much of the room is occupied by a security screening station (sitting below much of what's shown in that second picture). All in all I'd say that this is about maybe 1/10th of the total surface area of the mosaic? — Rhododendritestalk \\ 15:05, 17 January 2019 (UTC)reply
Hm. Would've liked to see some of the details of the top in it, but at the same time, curved walls? It would be awkward to even try. Support on the whole. It certainly shows a key repeating pattern, and gives a flavour of it. Adam Cuerden(

Support - nice detail, but the crop on the bottom is unfortunate (though not substantive, given the difficulty).
