Abstract
Azulejos, is a form of ceramic tilework, that is widely used in the art and architecture of Portugal. The word 'azulejo' comes from the Arabic word 'zellige' which means "polished stone". Azulejos are often brightly colored and intricately designed with patterns ranging from geometric shapes to other motifs. In art, Azulejos are commonly used to decorate walls, floors, ceilings, and fountains. They can be found in public spaces, such as churches, museums, and buildings, along with private homes. Azulejos have been incorporated into art for centuries with some of the earliest examples dating back to the 13th century.
