The phoenix, a legendary bird known for its ability to rise from its own ashes, is beautifully portrayed in this mosaic with outstretched wings and fiery plumage. Set against a backdrop of delicate roses, the scene exudes an aura of mystery and magic.
Created during the Middle Ages in Central Turkey, this masterpiece showcases the skilled craftsmanship and artistic vision of its creators. The use of mosaic as a medium adds depth and texture to the image, making it come alive under the viewer's gaze.
