And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Google Image search wants to say it's the Lavirotte Building in Paris (cleaerly not if you look at street view) but while it's clearly Art Nouveau it's more Gaudí's style (really similar to Casa Batlló) so you are probably right. I did find some copies of the pic that are at least 6 years old so probably not AI.
It certainly could qualify as a fairytale home!!!
ReplyDeleteBarcelona? just curious

DeleteArt Nouveau was truly a wonderful addition to the architecture of so much of Europe. Sadly not as much In the US.
ReplyDeleteCW if you take requests could you find us some Middle Earth Hobbit abodes?
ReplyDeleteNot quite Art Nouveau but what I recall quite nice, like a second breakfast nice.
I'll see what I can find.
DeleteThese are really cool - thanks for finding and posting them!
