Well aged

This week Carmi has suggested "Well aged" as a photographic theme. 

I have recently had a wonderful three-week holiday in Italy, so here are some pics around this idea.

Please click on the photos to see more detail.

Firstly, a well-aged foot from the Vatican Museum in Rome:

I can't resist a shot of the Colosseum:

This mosaic is one of those recovered from Pompeii. It is in the
Napoli (Naples)Museum.

Well-aged Parma hams from a family farm. Delicious!

I feel a little disrespectful posting these ones; I hope
no-one takes offence!  

They are mummies - one wrapped, one not - from the 

Egyptian Museum in Torino (Turin).
