Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The art of mosaic making is well-documented from earliest times, and the resilient nature of the medium has ensured that fine examples of mosaic have survived since the Greco-Roman and Byzantine eras. This book is designed to instruct and inspire in the art of mosaic making. The tools, the materials, and the techniques are all explained clearly and in detail to enable readers to create their own mosaics with confidence and understanding. To place this ancient art in context as well as to inspire creativity, the history of mosaic is also discussed, including details on mosaic sites, both ancient and contemporary. Lavishly illustrated with color photographs, The Art of Decorative Mosaics will provide inspiration and instruction to students, amateurs, and established mosaicists. Elaine M. Goodwin is a mosaic artist of international standing.
