Mosaics

Post by kbs2244 »

I put this out there just because I found it nice to know that this kind of thing can still be acquired in this day and age.
At a price of course.
I wonder if anyone could do an “adjusted for inflation” between now and Roman Empire days.

When I went to Italy in 1995 what I thought were paintings above the entrance to San Marco's in Venice turned out to be mosaics. Astounding workmanship.

The money people waste on churches!
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.
