Caragiale's plays electrify you

In 2012 we celebrated 100 years since the death of Ion Luca Caragiale, the most famous Romanian playwright. 
To mark this event, Enel (one of the electricity suppliers) painted a power transformer house in the town center, with characters of Caragiale's work.
What is the connection between an electricity supplier and Caragiale ?! They both had a premiere at the same time. In 1885, at the premiere of the play "Of the Carnival" by Caragiale, the National Theater in Bucharest was electric lighting for the first time, becoming the third theater in Europe with electric lighting.

Prehistoric Animal

I found this mosaic at Selari street, in Bucharest's Old Town. Seeking information about this Prehistoric Animal, I found that was done in 2014 by artist Julian Emil Moldovan, the project Glappy. He is a young artist who was specialized in mosaics and has several outstanding works, spread all over the country.
