Perzeus a Andromeda

A mosaic of Gorgona Meduza's haunted head with snakes instead of hair, one of which is held by Perseus, but we can only see his hand. One half of the face is alive, the other is dead. According to the famous ancient myth, we should turn to stone if we look at it.

Strom života

Between draped cloth, or better to say, a curtain with symmetrical ornamentation, we can see the centre of a tree, from its roots to the crown, the trunk is firmly hugged by a spring of water – a source of life. The stars shine in the crown of the tree and flowers smell beautifully.
