Wandering through the bustling and assorted stalls of El Rastro, it was hard to not feel in the mist of a traditional Spanish Sunday.
I came across these decorative tiles whilst there, and couldn't help. It relate them to this weeks task. The 'Carpe Diem' stood out to me particularly as a traditional Spanish font, although whether it is or not is something I am unsure of.
The caligraphic old style used on a phrase that is clearly not Spanish, however has impact. It reflects for me the laid back environment of Spain that I have grasped so far. But, this type embodied with the style and decoration of the tile resonates the rustic and traditional feel that this type and image gives.
