The artwork entitled “Beth Alpha Synagogue Mosaic” was created by Byzantine artists around c. 527, employing the mosaic medium, characteristic of the Early Byzantine period (c. 330–750). The piece is a figurative representation, part of a larger series located at the Beth Alpha synagogue, situated in Beit She’an, Israel.
The artwork is composed of a detailed arrangement of colored mosaic tiles, forming intricate patterns and designs that reflect the religious and cultural influences of the period. The central motif appears to depict vegetative elements, using a combination of earthy tones and small geometric shapes. The refined craftsmanship is evident in the careful placement of tiles to achieve a balanced and harmonious aesthetic. This artwork serves as both a significant historical artifact and a testament to the artistic practices of the Byzantine era.
