mosaics

Mosaics are decorative artworks made by assembling small pieces of materials, such as glass, stone, or tile, into a larger design or image. These pieces, known as tesserae, can vary in color, shape, and size, allowing for intricate patterns and detailed pictures. Mosaics have been used since ancient times in various cultures for buildings, floors, and walls. They are valued for their durability and beauty, as well as their ability to convey stories and themes through visual art. Today, mosaics continue to be popular in both traditional and contemporary art forms.
