VDP triche un peu en ce qu'elle poste une mosaïque pour les "fresques du lundi". Elle se trouve au collège Pierre de Nolhac, historien et poète, qui fut conservateur du château à partir de 1892.

Reminds me of the set theory I learned in school. So, let me get this straight. Some--but not all--mosaics are murals. and some--but not all--murals are mosaics. This is about when the teacher would ask us all to draw a diagram. ARGHH!!
It is beautiful work, Ciel!
Beautiful!
Hmmm. I don't think I will be offering to buy it from them.
And they have a clock incorporated into it! Cool!
That is a pretty fantastical work, actually. (Ah yes! The Treaty of Paris, the Congressional Congress received it in Princeton - how nice to see it marked there.)
Beautiful and unique!

Great use of color.
I like it. A bit of a cross, a bit of a medical caduceus, a climbing plant. All these elements make the clock surprising.
Has an organic feel, doesn't it? Love that one of the buds bloomed into a clock. You're not cheating in my book. Mosaic is the medium n'est-ce-pas? Thanks, Ciel, for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
une tres belle mosaique, j'aime beaucoup
I think one could also discern a human form to this mural... perhaps a ballerina en pointe?
I like the way it appears to 'grow' up the wall, very colourful!
THis is a really nice find! I love the colors and the fact that it's useful with the integrated clock!
Mural, mosaic - whatever - I like it a lot. Bright and cheerful for the kiddos. The clock is great, too. And thanks for the info on Pierre de Nolhac.
I'd be hard pressed to tell the time using this timepiece.
A great 3D effect and I like the way it seems to grow.
@ Birdman: 4:16? :-)
I like the colors and love the mosaic.
je la trouve pas mal
il neige toujours sur tes photos ; un reste du père Noël
This is a really nice one! My compliments to the author(s) of the mosaic!
It's a very pretty and colourful mural.
A mural is any piece of artwork painted or applied directly on a wall (wikipedia). So this is not cheating :)
And I thought the same thing as Bob Crowe, I like it.
Love this mosaic. Goodness there are some talented and patient artists out there.
Tres jolie colours and design here Ciel, it's pretty special, I'm sure the students love it also!
I can't believe you took the picture of the moon with a point and shoot.. bravo indeed :)
