I love fountains, I love water
The last fountain is a work of a Ravenna artist whose work I admire greatly, Marco Bravura, and it is in fact a mosaic-carpet fountain! Can you image the work and project/technical management involved here?
Would love to make a mosaic fountain?I found some instructions here on e-how. Worth reading
Pretty pretty! I have had many Art History classes so I know alot about Mosaics. I love your site! Have a fabulous day.

ReplyDeleteTheresa, you are so right! Pompeii and mosaic will always remain associated. We have learned so many things from the city under the ashes. Come to think of it, I should do a post on Pompeii soon...
