The Mosaicist in the Byzantine Church – This is how it could look

In a Byzantine church cross-section the mosaicist works on apse mosaic with two angels and a seated figure on the scaffolding above. Below three trays hold golden, blue and red tesserae, two apprentices select with tweezers and a marble slab waits. Three candles and six light beams. A patient study.
