German artist Hans Dieter Tylee used images from existing art works to create this Roman-style mosaic tile floor as visitors walk into the Grohmann Museum's glass entryway. The mosaic draws upon images from the Man at Work collection and features five images of men and women at work. Emphasizing manual labor, Tylle chose the miner, spinner, fieldworkers, blacksmith and foundry worker to represent various aspects of the collection.
