Royal Danish Library, Copenhagen.
Walking from the old library building, via the connecting bridge, to the "Black Diamond".
Two stone lionesses in the restored garden around the original entrance to the Morgan Library. The garden is now open when visiting the museum.
These female lions are "related" to the more familiar male lions in front of the New York Public Library because both pairs were created by Edward Clark Potter. His work can also be seen on the facade of the Brooklyn Museum.
Designed by architects Alsop and Störmer and opened in 2000. It was awarded the Stirling Prize for Architecture in that same year.
Took this the day I thought I would be able to get to the ponds and get some ducks or geese.. That fence around the whole parking lot made it very difficult for me to get down to the ponds.. You either go thru the library and out the back door and down stairs or go on the walkway around the building and down some stairs.. A little far for me without the aid of the walker... Happy Windows Wednesday, Everybody!!!

Spreading knowledge, adventure and love one book at a time!
People can take a book for free as long as they replace it with a different book. We have a lot of these in our community. I thought this one was cute because it looks like a ladybug.

The Doheny Memorial Library on the campus of the University of Southern California opened in 1932. It’s still a destination and a draw.
This library is not characterised by old folios; it presents itself more as the repository of an enlightened, diversely interested, wealthy family of the 19th and early 20th centuries. For example, it contains the first encyclopaedia in the Czech language. The interest in foreign cultures and countries was satisfied (among other means) by reading the works of Jules Verne and -- Karl May.

This is my little tribute to all those writers who made me live wonderful adventures when I was a child and those who are bringing me new stories.

The Piccolomini Library, adjoining the Duomo di Siena, is a jaw-dropping, neck straining, masterpiece.

There is a small garden next to the former royal residence of King Rama I. It afforded me some very welcome shade and a place to sit for a few minutes
Lx Factory, Lisboa, Portugal
Voar voar, subir subir, ir por onde for,
Descer até o céu cair ou mudar de cor,
Anjos de gás, asas de ilusão,
E um sonho audaz, feito um balão!
(poema de Vania Dramis Pimenta)
