Joeri Kemp
Ancient Library
Hello boys and girls (or whatever),
So I found myself in this ancient library when I was visiting the German/French city Wissembourg, which lies literally on the border of Germany and France. I was given a nice tour of the church and the grounds with it, when I spotted a small gap in the giant Fresco of Christoffel, which turned out to be the very largest of all the fresco's in France. The tourguide told me that behond the gap laid the ancient library and the gap was meant as a spying hole. After I convinced the tourguide that I was genuinely interested (I do study Greek and Latin Languages), I was allowed a little peek in the library. She told me that there hadn't been a single person in this room for over 30 years, which made me feel very excited! I ended up holding a genuine second print of a handwritten book of the Iliad and the Odyssee by Homer, which I laid on the therefore meant studyplank and took this shot. I really felt like a crosstype of Harry Potter and Indiana Jones when leaving the room! Extraordinary experience and I hope great photo! Sorry for the way too long story... I guess you'll just have to blame my overenthousiasm! See ya!
