From the same bridge today, the first photo looking north, and the second one south.
And why not "wrap up" with this view at the eastern end of the same bridge...
I suppose just some renovations going on here; but it made me think of the works of Christo and Jeanne-Claude - artists famous for wrapping various kinds of famous buildings and other landmarks in fabric... For example the Berlin Reichstag building (1995); and an installation of 7,503 gates made of saffron-colored fabric in Central Park in New York (2005) - and many more examples can be found in the Wikipedia article linked to above. I also see there that Christo died in 2020, though; and his partner already in 2009. So I suppose I can't blame them for this one... ;-)
That first photo is beautiful ... that reflection in the water!
ReplyDeleteThe first photo is my favorite; it is gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeletethe 2nd if my favorite of the north and south views, and now I wonder what is under that drop cloth and you must go back when it comes off and let us SEE... it looks like it was a perfect day
ReplyDeleteThere’s something delightfully whimsical about seeing everyday renovations through the lens of Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s monumental artistry
