These are images from my 2010 travels I've converted with this command:
for i in *.jpg; do convert "$i" "`basename "$i" .jpg`.png" && autotrace -despeckle-level 15 -color-count 6 -input-format PNG -output-file "`basename "$i" .jpg`".svg -output-format svg "`basename "$i" .jpg`.png"; done
The anthemion was used widely by the Greeks to embellish ceramics as shown in the illustration. Later, it was used by both the Greeks and Romans to decorate a wide variety of objects as well as the roof lines and collumns of buildings.
