Mosaic - Dining hall room of the Sainte-Barbe library, Paris 

This mosaic by Giandomenico Facchina, a prominent Italian artist known for his work in mosaic, depicts a scene of a bird perched on a branch of a fruit tree. The mosaic incorporates the classical style of a Roman column framing the scene, which was popular in European decorative art in the late 19th century. The mosaic's intricate details and vibrant colors showcase Facchina's mastery of the art form, creating a visually captivating scene that would have graced the walls of the Sainte-Barbe library in Paris. The mosaic was likely commissioned by the library as a decorative piece, showcasing both artistic skill and the beauty of nature.
