Consists of trencadis (broken ceramic) work and 330 handcrafted plaques, each one different from the next, said by some to be reminiscent of Claude Monet's water lily paintings.

Superb capture of the fine details. It is amazing that someone could put this all together to form the facade of a building. Impressive. ~
