Valerie Jaudon is an original member of the Pattern and Decoration movement. Her art has been written about consistently in books, journals, magazines, newspapers, and catalogs. She is the co-author, with Joyce Kozloff, of the widely anthologized Art Hysterical Notions of Progress and Culture (1978), in which she and Kozloff explained how they thought sexist and racist assumptions underlaid Western art history discourse. They reasserted the value of ornamentation and aesthetic beauty - qualities assigned to the feminine sphere.

Altar relief of Malakbel in Syrian and solar Roman appearance.
Also featuring sacred tree and Kronos as a Senex with billhook/harpe (Pruning sickle in Greece, symbol of power in ancient near east). May represent ANE/Mesopotamian belief that Saturn was the sun of the night, or "the star of Saturn".
Rome, Italy c.250 CE Source: The Pantheon of Palmyra by Javier Teixidor, 1979

Ancient Palmyra's burial customs have left behind a legacy of intricate busts, exquisitely carved from limestone. These lifelike sculptures capture the essence of Palmyra's multicultural society that once flourished along the Silk Road.
