STOVE TILES of the 16th–18th centuries
With the growth of cities in medieval Europe came to an innovative heating system – tiled stoves. Clay tiles were introduced in Lithuania in the 16th century. The shape of tiles gradually improved and their decoration reflected artistic trends of the time: initially unornamented clay tiles were manufactured, later Gothic niche tiles. Renaissance tiles ultimately gained popularity because their flat surfaces lent themselves to decoration. With ornamental tiles, stoves not only provided heat but also served as decorative elements in wealthy citizens’ homes. Flat tiles were produced using special wooden, clay or copper moulds. Tile workshops found in the old parts of Kaunas indicate that tiles were not imported but manufactured by local craftsmen. The exhibited tiles were found in the 1980s and 1990s during archaeological digs in central Kaunas - they are examples of the wide variety of tile types manufactured over extended periods of time. Noteworthy are the multi-coloured tiles with the coat of arms and the monogram of Sigismund Augustus and the coat of arms of the Polish State.

Čiurlionis contributed to symbolism and art nouveau and was representative of the fin de siècle epoch. During his short life he composed about 250 pieces of music and created about 300 paintings.
