ESPALDA

Paper Mosaic-collage on card. This is without a doubt the most iconic landmark of the UK and London, it hosts the parliament houses and the world famous clock tower best known as the Big Ben. The first royal palace was built on the site in the eleventh century, but the only medieval structures of significance to survive were Westminster Hall, the Cloisters of St Stephen’s, the Chapel of St Mary Undercroft, and the Jewel Tower since a fire destroyed much of the original complex in 1512 and then again in 1834. The current palace was reconstructed between 1840 and 1870.   This is a sunset view of the silhouette of the palace from the south bank of the river Thames.   This collage was made using recycled paper from magazines on a paper sheet.
