Title A name given to the resource Inquiry Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 1111.252.50 Subject The topic of the resource This mosaic mural that comes in five panels. The top panel is long and skinny, running horizontally over the other four. It shows items relating mostly to space and air. The panel underneath it on the left deals with people, growth, and learning. The top middle panel shows circular objects. The bottom middle panel shows nature and numbers. The panel on the far right snows different scenes including a boy and a fire. Description An account of the resource The top panel has 13 sections. In the first section, there are large raindrops and lightning, as well as a rainbow that stretches across five panels. This rainbow has yellow, then orange, then red, then blue. Planets surround it in the next few panels. It ends near three different stars: an eight-point white star, a yellow five-point star, and a blue and white Star of David. To the right of these stars is a predominantly red, blue, and green hotair balloon. In the panel next to that is a crescent moon overlapping the sun to make a complete circle; each has an eye and part of the nose and mouth. They smile downward. An hourglass, with about half of the sand in each bulb is in the section to the right of moon and sun. The next panel shows three different towers connected to one another. The first is orange, tall, and pointed. The next is yellow and rounded. The third is red, skinny and rounded. They all have arched windows. A white dove with a sprig of green in its beak flies in the next panel; its right wing goes over part of the red and yellow buildings. The leftmost lower panel has fifteen sections. A tower frame with a ladder in red climb up toward the rainbow in the top panel. A bolt of lightning from there comes into this left panel. To the right of the tower are an atom structure, a lightbulb with a lightning bolt hitting its center, a yellow heart rate line across green tiles. Below is a fetus that is shown upside down, in the birthing position. This fetus's umbilical cord stretches into the adjacent section to the right, where it connects to a mostly black tree with branches that are bare. The background behind the tree is orange with some yellow. Below this tree is an upsidedown white tree. Below that is an older baby with blonde hair in a diaper sitting in a red rocking chair. She/he is holding an ABC book while a zebra runs behind him. To their left is a snail shell, which is below red-colored people dancing holding up their arms. They are below a pendulum that comes from the red tower. Behind the pendulum is a molecular structure. The middle top panel has a gold French horn in front of a red circular shape. Next to it, each in their own sections are a cog, a circle with a mathematical equation, and a wheel. The panel below it has many numbers, a grasshopper, a boy in a red shirt leaning into a river with yellow fish, and a yellow and black cat beside him. The panel on the right has a Greecian, or Roman styled pillar, a traffic light, a stylized version of the American flag, a crown, some jumbled letters and numbers, the profile of a mans face in blue and gray, a boy near some bare trees on red and orange ground with a large wheat head. He is flying a kite that goes up into the top panel. A feather, a chunk of citrus, some triangles, a basketball, a flame, and the handicapped sign: a simplistic wheelchair finish the panel. To the left of the boy is a bright flame with the words (in caps) "The irritation of doubt causes a struggle to attain a state of belief" C.S. Peirce. The words UFF DA are hidden in this mosaic.
