Girl Watching In Ancient Rome

A comely servant girl carrying water has caught the eye of a number of the men.

The sport of girl watching has been going on since the beginning of time, I suppose. So here is a little vignette that I set up in my Roman town to reflect that. In the background a wife is getting ready to let her spouse get an ear full of her opinion as it relates to his wandering eyes. Poor fellow.

I think that the fellow in the blue tunic is in for a bit of trouble
as his wife gives him the old stink eye for letting his eyes wander.

Today I moved my fountain from the central forum square to a new square that I created off of one of the side streets in the city. I printed out some grey cobblestones on paper which create a rather nice visual effect.

The water fountain has been moved in front of the Basilica. The cobblestones are paper
printed off of images that I found on the internet.
