Mosaic Panel, Castle Street, Liverpool (3)

One of three mosaic panels on the facade of the old British and Foreign Marine Insurance Company building on Castle Street. This panel has areas of damage - mnre so than the others - and clearly needs restoration. Designed by Frank Murray in 1889 (signed and dated bottom right), and made by Salviati, the glassmaking company originally from Murano. Several Salviati murals adorn the outside of buildings in the UK, including the Apple Store in Regent Street, London. To view, click on
