I have to say that those mosaics are probably of the best quality that I have ever seen (admitting everything I have ever seen has been in the form of photos). They are truly pieces of art, not just architectural decoration.

Thanks for sharing.

Such beauty is to be admired by all faiths.

I hate to think what ISIS would do to the mosaics if they captured the area.

Put it on a grand 5 year display tour in 10 countries, charging $20 a head to see it, until pieces of tile fall out and mysteriously disappear and the thing gets duplicated in plastic for permanent display, with the original hidden in a museum basement to hide that fact.
