Ooooohhhhh!!!!!! [squeals like a happy little pig]
Absolutely gorgeous color!! And the medalions are stunning
european ... :)
The medallion on the far right is creepy compared to the others. Sad or angry in a way.
Stunning colour!
At first I thought this to be looking down on a small chest.
just beautiful
Motts, I look at a picture like this, and then think about why we've wanted you to go to Europe for so long.
Nice! Love the texture, detail, and colour in this one!
Truly beautiful. I almost wish I had been an inmate here. It's an asylum in the best sense of the word: a refuge or shelter from care/danger. Very peaceful.
beautiful, and the color of the paint looked like the sky outside in a storm
wow. thats... 'cool' for lack of a better word.
How angelo saxon, how English. Always with just a bit of royality even in the most direrest circumstances. When my mind is bursting a gasket, I always can take solace in the queen giving me the strength to buck up and carry on. God save the queen.
so beautiful!
Wow. The color, the detail. Simply amazing. Only a few like you can portray these places so amazingly well.
And to think, many people that patronized the theater in its better days probably didn't even notice these beautiful details.
DANG! ALL OF YA GUYS HAVE ALREADY SAID ALL THE THINGS I WANTED TO SAY!
once again Motts, your eye for beauty and incredible photography skills leaves me speechless!!
Beautiful. The combination of the color and the medallions puts me in mind of Louis IV period decor, or a similar period.
Definitely looks french, love the soft blue.
BEAUTIFUL...enough said
Something Regal even after the decay seeps in
Breathtakingly beautiful!
Beautiful! European architecture is just so amazing
Unbelievable. Love it.
Glad to see nobody has pilfered those. Would have looked beautiful in it's heyday.
Just wanted to add that those medalions really look good showcased by the blue color and the collumns.
oh wow! pretty!
this was an asylum? looks like the grand ballroom of some Royal Family
Create craftmanship and detail.. Beautiful shot..
beautiful looks kinda like a couple books one side by side
Lord Motts, your eye for beauty is truely an artform.
Looks like they went to a lot of trouble to impress a lot of people. Were there actually that many people considered Insane??? If so, where have all the insane gone?? ???? I realize that the progress drugs has helped some people, once considered insane, cope with life. What I can't understand is that if they had that many insane people back then, why don't we have that many now?? OR DO WE????
you didn`t have to be "mad" to be locked up there..way back ...if you were caught wanking...you could be locked up !!! I`m not joking.....there was a room set aside called the `batorium for those followers of Onan
WE have 'em; they're out on the street.
(read my treatise on "The Government's Cure")
umm..love those ceiling orns..
That's a really neat design.
Oh I love these!
nice
:)
Guitorman where can this treatise be found.I would be interested in reading it.
The right one looks as if there were a hole underneath it..? Maybe room for the cables?
