Mosaic - Musicians - Hristovaia House of Culture
Unknown — 1989
Description
Four folk musicians in waistcoats and white shirts, playing the flute, violin, viola, and I believe piano. Created from tesserae in muted green, ochre, white, and oxblood, mirroring the colors of the dancers but in a more subdued manner. A small sun floats above them, a darker array of colors (blue, from the musicians, versus the yellow from the other radiant sun from the folk dancers). Though stylized as a sun, the face and darker colors point to it being a moon. The lower panels have started to fail, exposing patches of bedding mortar where tiles have dropped away.
