Which risk increased when Byzantine mosaic tesserae experienced prolonged dampness?

💡 Explanation

Byzantine mosaics risk salt-driven tesserae detachment because capillary action draws saline solutions into the backing, therefore causing crystallization and expansive pressure that detaches the tesserae, rather than radiant heat because it's normally a temperature controlled issue and the tesserae themselves are very refractive.
