One Day In Pompeii

By Gerard @presurfer
Halloween has already past but you might get a kick out of this lantern carving by architectural artist Jeff Stikeman. Based on the Diary Entries of Pliny the Elder, the scene is a five foot long wrap-around panorama carved into a 75 pound 'Atlantic Giant' pumpkin. The scene is centered on the Great Forum, in Pompeii, in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius.
See some photos and an explanation on Jeff's website.
