Mosaic close-up

A few weeks ago I took my camera to Boulevard Garnier, an east-west street north of Nice’s city center. I walk it occasionally to go to the Libération open-air market, and had noticed some beautiful mosaics on apartment entries. The one shown above is a closeup ofthis mosaic, leading tobeautiful wooden doors. It was done by themosaic cutter and setter Zanussi, as well asthis scrolling vine mosaicjust down the street.

There’s a more modestart deco mosaicin my building’s entrance, and back on Boulevard Garnier, this “Provence” mosaic, done in a very different style:
