Arches and Columns
Arches and columns at Glasgow University.
Serendipity brought us to these arches and columns during our visit to Glasgow. As we sometimes do, we had headed out on foot in the morning with only a very general idea of where we were headed — essentially in the direction of the West End. We knew there was a museum along the way that we wanted to visit, but that was about it. As we approached, the impressive Gothic tower at Glasgow University dominated the skyline, and we ended up deciding to investigate.
There are modern buildings here, but this central Gothic structure, built around inner courtyards, caught out attention. At first we admired it from outside, but then I saw an entry and figure “why not?” We walked in, wandered a bit, and eventually found these archest and columns over a walkway between the courtyards.
