A large wall-mounted mosaic on the back wall of the open-air summer stage in the Valley of the Roses park (Parcul Valea Trandafirilor, laid out in 1968 in the Botanica sector). Worked in ceramic and smalt tile, it sets warm ochre, gold, brick-red and brown figures with dark contours against a light, speckled cream ground: stylized human figures — dancer- or muse-like — caught up in sweeping ribbon- and branch-like forms around a central tree, with a radiant sun toward one edge; a lyrical, festive composition suited to a performance stage. Attributed to Alexandr Kuzmin; the sources that record it date it only approximately — to around 1970 (late 1960s – early 1970s). It is not a protected monument.
