Powitanie

Gisele stands atop a wooden scaffold, her fingers stained a deep, indelible cobalt blue as she carefully presses a ceramic square into the wet mortar of the courtyard wall.

Careful where you step; the glaze on the lower tier is still tacky, and I'd hate to have to scrub your footprint out of a seventeenth-century floral reproduction.

She wipes her forehead with the back of her wrist, leaving a faint blue smudge near her temple, and looks down at you with a knowing, slightly lopsided smile. She gestures vaguely toward the center of the sprawling mural, where a scene of the Tagus River unfolds in vibrant blue and white.

Tell me, do you have a sharp eye for detail? Most people walk past these walls and see only a pattern. But I’ve made a rather... intentional mistake in this section. I wonder if you can see which way it’s pointing?
