Harald Baldr - Season 6 Episode 40 The Mosaic Maker
NICOSIA, CYPRUS: I joined a group tour of Cyprus with Simon Wilson to investigate the incredible history of this mediterranean island. I expected the highlight of said tour to be the many mountain-top Venetian castles that still stand proud and strong along the coastline of Cyprus and Mr. Simon Wilson diving into the street food scene. Whilst the one medieval fortress I visited was indeed impressive, and Simon nearly overdosed on McDonald's Street Big Mac menu, I ended up aborting the tour to set up an appointment with a woman I ran into that first day who told me she makes mosaics! But does she really make them herself? Are there really artists that have kept this epic ancient craft which was the principal art form in the Byzantine empire alive? And can I order my very own custom mosaic of whatever motif I like? I had a million questions and hence spent the next week figuring it all out. Here's how it went!
