Details of the Victorian wall tiles in the art gallery café, on the Headrow in Leeds

 

This magnificent Victorian Tiled Hall was opened in 1884 and was initially Leeds Central Library reading room. From 1888-1941 it functioned as the sculpture court for Leeds Art Gallery next door.

 

During 1955-2007 it became part of the Library. However, all the tiles hid behind wooden panels and bookcases.

 

Renovations in 2007 revealed the original fabric of the room, and the space became a now-iconic café.

 

Black and white was photography brings out the detailed relief on these tiles using natural light.

Niki de Saint Phalle's Queen Califia's Magical Circle, Escondido, CA, near San Diego. So much hand work here. Walls covered in broken mirrors, polished gemstones, pottery, and tile. Niki's artwork is not to be missed!

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

 

(I put an image - not the same house - with decorative tiles in the first comment)

 

Happy Macro Monday, everyone

I always miss summer, so I made this composite, imagining I was a little ladybug enjoying the sun. 🐞Lately, I have been loving black backgrounds, but I just needed an interjection of COLOR. It is so white, grey and brown right now! Plus, we are losing a beautiful tree tomorrow. 😢 It is diseased and we need to take it out before birds start nesting in it this spring. I am so sad!

Taken while on a work lunch break in Croydon. Only had my mobile with me when I took this. Shot in manual pro mode but I'd inadvertently turned the RAW setting off so the image isn't as crisp as I would've liked.

 

Lots of shapes to be seen here, from the shapes created by the building support struts, the paving slabs of the pavement, tiles on the under croft and the windows on the buildings in the distance. The more you look the more shapes you see.

 

This is the under croft of the Pinnacle Apartments building in Croydon South London.

For Macro Mondays ;Tile; theme - these are some sample tiles that didn't make the cut but for some reason I have kept.

Croft Castle

 

These wonderful floor tiles are in the Church Of St. Michael and All Saints at Croft Castle. They date mostly from the 15th century, but some are even older. They were moved to the church from the former Croft Castle when it was demolished in the 17th century. Various designs can be seen (although I haven’t been able to get the entire floor in the photo) these include, abstract patterns, Coats of Arms, including those of England and France, along with leading families of the period. Although they are now all mixed up, originally the groups would have formed geometric patterns.

 

Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
