Punda Tile Work

Good evening readers, this is going to be super short because I am so tired after one of the busiest days ever!! 
 
On Queens Day when I took Bernard and Rosa for a walk-about around the crowded city of Punda we found this big beautiful Punda Mosaic leaning up against the wall on the Outrabanda side of the harbor.  It was made in 1988 but depicts a common everyday scene from the early 1800′s, it was really beautiful and looked super heavy!!  You have to look carefully but each piece was made by hand, painted and fired then set in this monster frame for all to see, I was kind of shocked that it was just sitting out in the street as it looks like it should be in a museum! 
 
Sorry so short my little brain is fried, talk to you tomorrow, Barry
