#MosaicMonday Soli is an ancient Greek city on the island of Cyprus, next to the town of Karavostasi and on the coast of the gulf of Morphou. What remains today is mainly from the #Roman period, including the mosaic floor of the basilica with its wealth of birds, animals and a picture of a swan.

John Loengard. Photographed George O’Keeffe at Abiquiu, one of her New Mexico homes. 1968. She became a celebrity because of her independence, because of the way she engineered her life in such a simple way that she looked like a role model for counterculture lifestyle.

Battersea Power Station in 1936 by Bill Brandt, from his famous series of night photographs of London which were inspired by Brassaï's night photos of Paris. This is a masterpiece.

The Berlin Wall. Don McCullin. August 1961. ‘It could almost have been as if I had wandered into Christopher Isherwood’s Berlin. I went straight down to Friedrichstrasse and I saw the East Germans drilling the foundations and building the Wall breeze block by breeze block.’

26th July 1979, The Clash's debut album was released in the USA, one year after "Give 'Em Enough Rope", making it their second release in the US. Can you spot what's different about the cover and which songs were added to the US version that weren't on the UK release?

Paul Nash's "Battle of Britain" vividly captures the drama of aerial combat during World War II with swirling contrails against a serene sky. The painting reflects Nash's iconic surrealistic style, highlighting the contrast between the turbulence of war and the calmness of the English landscape below.
