Bread factory mosaic
A large relief mosaic in glass smalt on the facade and end walls of the bread factory on str. Sarmizegetusa in Botanica, continuing onto the adjoining hotel block. A figurative composition on the harvest-and-bread theme: vertical herringbone columns of stylised wheat ears frame draped ceremonial towels carrying round-dances of folk-costumed figures; among them, round loaves of bread rendered as flower-like rosettes and a radiant sun, several of the discs projecting from the wall in relief. Earthy ochre, beige and brown tones with turquoise accents, over a dark blue tiled base. Formerly a protected art monument, it no longer appears on the register, and its author and date are unrecorded.
