Description
A composite image, from seven shots, taken between railings surrounding a ceramic frieze under a window on the exterior of The Midland Hotel in the centre of Manchester. Hard to gauge the scale from this image - the original construction was over 3 to 4 metres wide. The whole building is decorated with artistic follies, including many architectural excesses. Quite delightful compared to the just glass and steel structures elsewhere.
Top finisher in the 'Architectural Elements' contest.

Glorious architectural detail. Would love to have this tile panel hanging over my front door to greet guests. Love it.

You may have to settle for a reproduction -- I think the Midland Hotel may notice it missing! Thank you for you kind and interesting comments.
