- There is a NEW version of this video with the single image of two dead terrorists REMOVED. It also has two minutes of additional footage with images of important mosaic sites we've visited since 2015, the year this was first posted. Here's the new title and location:
"Mosaic History with Marlea Taylor"

Wonderful video. Thanks for bringing it to us.
My opinion is that mosaics are one of the most beautiful expressions of art. I can't get enough of it. I'm getting ready to build an adobe house in rural Arizona. In that, I will have floors that sport a rattlesnake, scorpion, deer, antelope and Gila monster. It will be encircled by a 5" wide tiled rope. The floor molding will be made of rectangular red tiles. I wish to have a Roman house such that it might someday be excavated and confuse the archeologists to all hell get out. It will be wicked pissa bad.
Incredible variety. Thanks for sharing.
informative video with lots of fab images. Would have been nice to have the names of the artists on the screen to refer to. I'm also unsure why there needed to be an image of dead terrorists int he middle of all of this. That was a bit disturbing for my kids to see. I didn't think I'd need to check through this before watching with them.
Yeah that's the only thing keeping me from using it for homeschool. 😬
Totally agree… was just adding it to our homeschool playlist then this disturbing scene of dead terrorist flashed by… WHY?!!
Fantastic look back at the history of this art and wonderfully narrated!
Thank you!
Nice overview, and well done. I gained some inspiration from several of the featured mosaics. Thank you.
Good history! I really like the narrator's voice. Natural and easy to listen to.

Beautiful information! Thank you so much !
who made mosaic in the wilhem keisser II memorial church?
Hi, myself Karan from India. I am a professional art-Conservator and restoring mosaic on a wall in the Lukshmi Vilas palace in Baroda, Gujarat in India. It was very interesting to watch this video and very thankful to compose all those information, images, videos with beautiful husky voice. I loved everything very much for this effort and appreciate the whole thing. Keep it up and let's meet if you ever visit India. Am a professional Guide as well.
An entertaining and very informative video with some fine images - although the Byzantine-era mosaics are my favourite, I'll definitely seek out visit the Grand and Petit Palais and Pasteur's tomb next time I'm in Paris, the mosaics there are exquisite. No doubt you are familiar with the astonishing Italian micro-mosaic work created from the Renaissance onwards - the Victoria and Albert Musuem in London has a wonderful collection.
I have to agree with the other commenters, however, that the image of the dead men is rather inappropriate and incongruous in the context of a video about mosaics - I read Mr Taylor's explanation and understand why you chose to include this but surely this information could have been communicated in a less brutal and unexpected way, or a warning given at the beginning of the video? Nevertheless, thank you very much for this video.
Thank you so much for sharing this great mosaic information with us ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
My teacher made me watch this for art 2 😂
No cap
I guess I'm pretty randomly asking but does anyone know of a good site to stream newly released series online ?

At 15:04, is that a special stained glass cutter, or is that cutting plastic; & where would one find that cutter for personal purchase, please? Thank you.
I think you're asking about a "ring saw," which is a motorized cutting tool that spins a diamond-coated metal ring at high speed to allow cutting in any direction on tile or glass or any hard material that's not too thick. They are made by several companies, but the one you see is a newer one made by Taurus.
Right at the 1:00 minute mark. Based Churchill
Hi Ms. Lugo! (She is my art teacher by the way)
Well made for such a small channel
how can you tell the difference between a roman and a greek mosaic ?
Abdelhadi Shalak you can see it by it's style and it depends on the epochs they were made. classical Roman mosaics for example can be black-white (silhouette style), but they could also be a "reproduction" of Hellenic wall paintings. classical Hellenic mosaics started with pebbles, but during the centuries Greeks invented a regional style that was different from the Roman one. the mosaics shown in the video with inscriptions e.g. are famous for one region/century. to answer your question: you can tell it by its style ( figurines, colours, inscriptions, ornaments aso)

Mosaics are a gift TO the world from YOUR part of the world!
@@RTaylorDenYes, I love the fact that the first mosaics in the world are in southern Iraq, my country. Thank you, Ws world, for developing this art. Thx 4 make this video.
The thanks are to YOU! I had to send your comment in Arabic to our mosaic art friends! They all came back with "Cool!" "Wondeful!"
