Mosaic of the Month: Mouse Nibbling

 

This is the second it what will be a series of small mosaics of mice. The inspiration for this piece comes from a second century mosaic known as an ‘asaratron’ - meaning an unswept floor - in the Vatican Museum, Rome, a detail of which shows a little mouse nibbling a walnut. I’ve brought it up to date by using a brightly coloured glass fusion for the nibblet of corn.
