This must have taken a long time to create but oh what fun it would have been.

this is but a tiny portion of the wall/bench - my camera could not get it all in properly due to the shape and sheer size of the terrace. I was happy just to find bits without people sitting!

Wow, that bench is unique and beautiful - and the view beyond it is lovely! I have no trouble imagining the challenge you faced trying to find unpopulated sections of it to photograph!

It must have taken a lot of time and patience to crate this. It's good to see it now so appreciated.

This is just beautiful. Must have been a lot of work. I especially like the pretty colors.

the practical side of me wonders where he got all the bits for the mosaic...
the previous post also has a nice bit of painting on the house that could be a mural.

You are so lucky to get photos without the usual crowds. Gaudi was brilliant and one of a kind. His art seems to inspire awe and happiness. This mosaic serpent is a perfect example. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
