That which at twilight had appeared to be a silvery sea-god's palace, a structure of twisted sea-shapes, was now a temple built by the cunning genies of Fire.
~Gabriele D'Annunzio
I know I posted art of Venice recently, but I'm doing it again...these silk inlay mosaics are just so lovely:
Palazzo Michiel dalle Colonne
by Gisella Giovenco
Palazzo Giusti e Ca' d'Oro
by Gisella Giovenco
Vista di Portofino
by Gisella Giovenco
Varigotti
by Gisella Giovenco
These are all absolutely wonderful! And silk, too...I wouldn't have guessed, but I'm all the more impressed by his use of that medium. Gisella Giovenco is a magnificent artist.
