Ravenna mosaics 1

Today a trip to a workshop called TAMO in Ravenna where mosaics are restored and the craft is taught.
I was particularly interested in the reproductions of the  mosaics from the church of S. Giovanni Evangelista. They depict scenes related to the Fourth Crusade1202-1204. I love the simplicity and urgency of the images.
