Description: This mosaic of a person's face is composed of approximately four inch squares, filled with Venetian glass and tile. The colors of the mosaic are shades of gray, black, and ivory. The tiles make up a human face, partially covered by a shadow. Two black glass ball eyes stand out from the picture, and thin lips contribute to the haunted expression of the pale face. The upper lip is a light black color, and the lower lip is gray and brown.
