i've been meaning to post these pictures for a while. i was able to go to the museum of natural history not too long ago, and aside from the incredible displays in the museum itself, there are absolutely wonderful murals connecting the museum to the subway. the museum has its own stop on the subway, and as soon as you get off of the train you are presented with beautiful mosaic murals of all types...all corresponding to the different animals in the museum. my favorite, however, were the ones coming down from the aquatic section into the subway. as you can see, you go down the staircase into an aquarium of mosaic tiles, all beautifully painted and in different depths and thicknesses. aside from just going to visit the museum, the mosaics themselves are enough to warrant a trip up to the museum of natural history.
