In my hometown there is an old Hotel which was used as a hospital(Lazarett) during the 2nd World War. ..... Lately ,at a visit, I noticed this old sign at the wall....It´s the sign of the "Red Cross", if you can imagine!!!?? Times and weather have washed the white colour......Tiles have been replaced ....History!!!!Today " Johannes Itten " would have been enthusiastic about the colours:-)))).. I´m really flashed , anyway<3
It wasn't until I got up close I realised how intricate the tile work encasing the Opera House is. There are several different patterns used each reflecting light differently.

Macro Mondays - theme: Tile
The façade of the apartment building we live in is listed, but unfortunately there are no pretty decorative tiles in either the entrance / stairwell or our flat.
So I braved the heat and made a stroll through the neighbourhood, looking for ornamented tiles in the entrances of the houses. Those tiles are most likely made by the long-standing, now closed-down Majolica Porcelain Manufactory of my hometown.
You see a part of such decorative tiles (showing a white bloom, maybe a lily, with blue leaves) with the characteristic vibrant colours of the manufactory; especially the famous blue

Happy Macro Monday, everyone
Largo da Sé is a charming square lined with orange trees […] and dominated by the city’s impressive cathedral plus a cluster of palatial buildings, including the Bishop’s Palace.
Built on the site of an old mosque following the Reconquest in 1251, Faro’s magnificent Sé Cathedral is blessed with a bold, basilica-like interior particularly notable for its 18th-century Baroque organ and wide nave flanked by exquisite azulejo tiles. Visitors who ascend the bell tower are rewarded with the most breathtaking views of the city’s old quarter, nearby wetlands and far beyond. Google
