These tiles were on exhibit in the Karatay Medresesi. I found them interesting because they showed figures of people and animals. When I asked why these were here, the comment was that these were likely from a palace location, rather than a mosque.

The tiles of life - when everything falls into place the walk on it is very peaceful on the other hand its the most painful...
I spent an hour or so tonight making miniature tile for the Oriel Window. I've used a left over floor tile that had a lightly textured surface, and cut them into half inch squares. It worked beautifully...then I tried to break them along all the lines. That worked too, except they all fell off the sticky backing..so I have a pile of tile I am not quite ready to use!
I'm planning on putting them into a jar for storage, since they have fallen off the sheet, but I am a bit worried I might have a "permanently affixed" pile of tiles tomorrow.
I'll let you know how that turned out! :0||

feel very underwhelmed by my pics from Venice. our four days there were all a bit rushed and did include the birthdays of two friends but i feel as if i didn't engage with the place. i need to sink into a place before ei feel the photos i take have any true meaning.
still see Venice and die they say, and from the looks of many of the people i saw there, both inhabitants and tourists, thats what they seem to be doing. . .
