azulejo – TRAVEL WORDS

March Square | Multiple Squares

Some you have seen before, others you have not, but with time running out I wanted to display all my Portugues squares. In a square. Of course.

We are almost coming to the end of Becky’s (“A life of a 40 something”) March challenge of square photographs with the theme:

‘Squared Squares’ – think multiple squares and squares within squares
‘Squaring the Circle’ – the perfect post will be a circle within a square

Since Becky spends a lot of her time in Portugal I think she might like my first entry.

Azulejo is a form of Portuguese or Spanish painted, tin-glazed, ceramic tilework. There are some exquisite examples of these on the exterior of houses and other buildings in Lisbon. But sadly there are many broken tiles to be seen.
