Vitral is an art usually found in Europe and is created using small tainted pieces of glass. You can see all sorts of different shapes made of colored glass - eagles, humans, owls, plants and buildings. The one you can see above in the image is a fusion of man and fire. It was set up at the "Cosmo Vitral" in downtown Toluca.

I stopped there on the way back from Zitacuaro for some time and visited this place. It had vitral all over the place, on the roof, on the walls, everywhere. An amazing form of art; really.
