Metro Argüelles Mosaic

A 1995 broken-tile view of Madrid's Parque del Oeste, with the cable car crossing the sky

Metro Argüelles Mosaic

Inside the Calle Princesa entrance to Argüelles station, a 1995 mosaic by J. Ruiz renders the Parque del Oeste in broken tile, the Teleférico’s red cabin sliding down its cable while an airplane crosses the sky. Metro’s diamond logo anchors the scene, and the artist’s JR monogram sits in the bottom-right corner.
