SPQR is an initialism from a Latin phrase, Senatus Populusque Romanus (“The Senate and the People of Rome” or “The Senate and Roman People”), referring to the government of the ancient Roman Republic, and used as an official signature of the government. The wolf nurses the two brothers Romulus and Remus, who according to legend founded Rome. This mosaic can be found in Milan, Italy in San Ambrogio, the Galleria. Submitted by Lylee Van Pelt
