Marble frieze of Daniel praying from the Church of Seleucia Pieria, c.525-50 AD.
"The bas-relief and the champlevé carvings [of the Seleucia Pieria church] are of great interest because they form the only extant program of Christian figural sculptures found at Antioch and because such a variety of themes from the Old and the New Testaments are represented." (Susan Boyd in Antioch: The Lost Ancient City
).
Princeton Art Museum, inv. c503-S623.
