TIRANA, ALBANIA - Albanian painter Saimir Strati, 42, works on "The Guitarist" mosaic using cork at the Sheraton Hotel in Tirana on August 21, 2008. Strati will use around 300,000 corks on a banner measuring 96 square-meters in an effort to secure for the third time a place in the Guinness World Record with the largest, 3-dimensional cork mosaic ever attempted. This work will take around 27 days after which experts from the Guinness World Record will give their verdict. (Photo by Gent Shkullaku/AFP/Getty Images)
