Wandschmuck

About me

This is my collection of photos of tiles, especially Art Nouveau tiles. If not declared otherwise they are all amateur photographies taken by myself.
Whenever possible I tried to find references. This is not always possible though and as I just take the pictures wherever I go and don`t possess any of the tiles, it is not possible for me to show the backsides. Sometimes I didn`t even manage to access the actual room where I found them and had to take a picture through the door glass.
I decided not to publish the address where I exactly found them to prevent theft. For any additional information you want or helpful suggestions please contact:
