The scene captures Ulysses sitting aboard a sailing boat, his robe billowing in the wind as he embarks on his perilous journey. The attention to detail is awe-inspiring, with each tile meticulously placed to form an intricate mosaic. Ulysses stands tall, hands behind his back, displaying both strength and determination in the face of temptation. The Sirens, known for their enchanting voices that lured sailors to their doom, are depicted surrounding him. The frame of the mosaic adds an ornamental touch to this masterpiece of Roman art. Its horizontal composition allows us to fully appreciate every aspect of this ancient treasure.
