In Honor of Valentine's Day....

Mermaids? Mer-people?
17th Century booty call?

These images are just a glimpse of the many, many, many amazing tile panels
at the Fronteira Palace, built in the 1660's outside of Lisbon, Portugal.

Hope you all have a happy weekend with your main squeeze.

oooh, pretty!
