81 Street Museum of Natural History subway station mosaics
81 Street Museum of Natural History subway station mosaics
This is a post, is for Beautiful Sunday hosted by @ace108, and Sublime Sunday, created and hosted by @c0ff33a, I try each week to think of something that may fit both of these challenges and when I visited the Museum of Natural History earlier this week, I went there on the Subway and came across some cool mosaics in the station by the tracks I got off at that I thought would fit these challenges.
Starting with this one, I guess the big kid in me shows out that the main thing I wanted to see when I got to the museum was the dinosaur exhibits

A little bit about this station it opened on September 10, 1932, as part of the opening of the first city-owned subway line, the IND Eighth Avenue Line, as part of the 1998–2000 station renovation these Mosaics were added.
Even though the Dinosaur were the top of my list to see all the exhibits in the Museum were good to see, the Bird ones were up there for me as well so the second mosaic I share is of this eagle.

Even the station signs and direction on best exit to get to the museum are shown with mosaics

I did like this colorful lizard.
I do love mosaic art, it has always been a style I really enjoy

Such a mosaic is certainly more work than putting a puzzle together. Your photos show great mosaic art - I also like the dinosaur most 😊

Well I may be !DERANGED but that doesn't stop me from giving them away either
Something that takes someone patience to put together for sure
Absolutely more patience than I have LOL

The tile mosaics are really cool. I think we never out grow the our early love of dinosaurs.

Arent they just I always love seeing them, and yes for sure wqellI never grew up LOL
An art form always pleasing to the eye, the eagle swooping and lizard are so well done it feels realistic.
Natural art museum must be epic to see on arrival at this platform, nice photography against the tiles getting the lighting right.
I think its great they did these they are so cool and gets you in the mood for the Museum :)
