Colorful stones, bricks and ceramics were used to finish the striking façade of the Russian Orthodox St. Nicolas Cathedral in Nice, France. On top of the green tiled onion domes are gilded crosses. Also notice the ornate windows that are decorated with a tin-glazed pottery called majolica plus a huge mosaic of the Holy Face of Christ. In the sunlight, the La Cathedrale Orthodoxe Russe Saint-Nicolas becomes a sparkling gem.
