Incomplete mosaic of Spring. 57x57cm

Description

Incomplete aged Roman mosaic of Spring.

A pictorial work made from small pieces of stone, ceramic, glass or other similar materials of various shapes and colours, called tesserae, joined together with plaster or other binding agent to form decorative geometric or figurative compositions.

Mosaic made entirely by hand, using the same techniques as thousands of years ago.

The technique used is the ‘Opus Teselarium’, a mosaic of cubic stone tesserae.

In its manufacture, 8mm tesserae of natural stones and marbles of different colours have been used. Fixed on a mortar with a metal structure. Ready to be hung on the wall or as floor paving.
