Introducing the first piece in the “Jentaculum” series! Jentaculum is the name for the first

meal of the day for ancient Romans. ”Quisp”

and his (her? its?) adversary “Quake” had an ongoing battle for the hearts and minds of kids

in the early 1970s. “Quake” will be featured

as the second piece in this set of five. Secondary

items (like the dead fish) are taken from existing examples of ancient mosaic and fresco still lives.
