Roman mosaic found near Merida (Spain), the ancient city of Emerita Augusta founded in 25 BC by Augustus. The central part of the mosaic depicts the owner of the villa hunting a wild boar. Around the scene of the hunt, allegorical figures representing the four seasons (Viranus, Aestas, Autumnus, Hibernus).
