Super Wide House [in explore]

Sydney Opera House, 50th Birthday series. 20 October 1973. Architect John Utzon. The Sydney Opera House has been recognised by UNESCO as a masterpiece of human creative genius.

 

"Utzon created a building that changed the image of an entire country. It is the first time in our lifetime that such as epic piece of architecture gained such universal presence." Frank Gehry.

 

This wide angle image clearly shows the plane of the podium rising up like an extension of the landscape and in the context of the Harbour Bridge.
