Les plans sont réalisés par l’architecte François Aune et validés par Charles Garnier. L’architecture extérieure est inspirée d’un style dit éclectique, et à l’intérieur la grande salle disposée en fer à cheval est luxueusement décorée et ses dimensions sont spectaculaires, dix-neuf mètres de large sur vingt-trois mètres de long. La fresque du grand plafond, avec un ciel mythologique représentant Phaéton, fils d’Apollon, conduisant le char du soleil, ainsi que les décors attenants, les quatre panneaux des Neuf muses qui ornent le grand foyer, sont réalisés par le peintre Emmanuel Costa.
Le nouveau théâtre municipal est inauguré le 7 février 1885 avec Aïda de Giuseppe Verdi. En 1902, le théâtre municipal devient l’opéra de Nice.

la réalisation de ce grand dessein confié par louis XV à Jacques Ange Gabriel devait demander plus de vingt ans. Au cours de cette longue période, Gabriel, qui avait étudié les principaux théâtres d'Italie, en particulier ceux de Vicence, de Bologne, de Parme, de Modène et de Turin, présenta au roi différents projets dont aucun ne fut accepté. C'est seulement en 1768 que le roi, en prévision des mariages successifs de ses petits-enfants, se décida enfin à donner l'ordre de commencer les travaux. Ceux-ci furent poussés activement et l'Opéra, achevé en vingt-trois mois, fut inauguré le 16 mai 1770, jour du mariage du Dauphin avec l'archiduchesse Marie-Antoinette, avec une représentation de Persée de Quinault et Lully.

Due chilometri a nord di Castelleone, sorge l’imponente chiesa di Santa Maria in Bressanoro, raggiungibile attraverso un breve meandro di viottoli di campagna.
In questo luogo, a metà del XV secolo, il francescano portoghese Amedeo Menez de Silva convinse Bianca Maria Visconti, duchessa di Milano e moglie di Francesco Sforza, a promuovere la costruzione di una grande chiesa con annesso convento quale sede della sua congregazione detta appunto degli “Amadeiti”. La chiesa risulta iniziata nel 1465 e terminata nel 1470.
La chiesa è costruita in mattoni rossi ed è caratterizzata da decorazioni in terracotta.
All’interno ornano le pareti 29 affreschi con la vita di Cristo.
Nella grande crocefissione compaiono Bianca Maria Visconti, il marito Francesco Sforza, le due figlie Elisabetta e Ippolita e altri membri della famiglia ducale, compreso Ludovico il Moro giovinetto.
L’intero ciclo, datato al nono decennio del XV secolo è opera di autori sconosciuti, legati a modelli iconografici arcaici, con una matrice tardo-gotica.
Two kilometers north of Castelleone, rises the imposing church of Santa Maria in Bressanoro, reached through a meander country lanes.
In this place, in the middle of the fifteenth century, the Portuguese Franciscan Amedeo Menez de Silva convinced Bianca Maria Visconti, Duchess of Milan and wife of Francesco Sforza, to promote the construction of a large church with a convent as the seat of his congregation called "Amadeiti".
The church is built in red brick and is characterized by terracotta decorations.
Inside 29 frescoes with the life of Christ adorn the walls.
The whole cycle, dated to the ninth decade of the fifteenth century is the work of unknown authors, linked to archaic iconographic models, with a late gothic matrix.
The Opera House is part of a structure that includes a hotel, cafe and other rooms that was originally constructed with adobe bricks in 1923 by the Borax Mining Company. When mining ceased in 1928, the buildings fell into disrepair until Marta Becket fell in love with the place. She was a ballet dancer, opera singer and painter. She acquired the property in 1967. Marta had a dream and by force of will she made it happen. She renovated and operated the hotel and restaurant in addition to performing ballets she choreographed and operas she wrote. She covered the walls of the Opera House, hotel and restaurant with murals and paintings. Her last performance was in 2012 when she was 88. Marta died in 2017 but her legacy lives on as a result of a non-profit organization she founded that continues to operate the hotel and performance space in addition to raising money to repair and renovate the structures. The adobe bricks with which the buildings were built suck up water when it rains. Although average rainfall in the area is less than 2 inches a year, the recent atmospheric rivers California has experienced have been quite destructive.

The ship is the ferry to Denmark, and the object to the left of the image is a permanent public sculpture called "She Lies" (Norwegian: hun ligger) by the artist Monica Bonvicini, made of stainless steel and glass panels. It floats on the water on its concrete platform and turns on its axis in response to the tide and wind.

COPENHAGA (Dinamarca): Casa da Ópera.
Casa de Ópera de Copenhaga (português europeu) (em dinamarquês:Operaen) é a sede da ópera nacional da Dinamarca e uma das casas destinadas a música mais modernas do planeta. A Operaen é considerada a casa de ópera mais cara já construída. Foi erguida na ilha de Holmen com um custo total de mais de 500 milhões de dólares.
A Operaen, propositalmente, fica exatamente na direção do Palácio de Amalienborg e da Igreja de Mármore. A porção da ilha de Holmen, onde a ópera foi construída chama-se Dokøen (Ilha das Docas, em português), um antiga e tradicional porto da cidade de Copenhaga. A Operaen pode ser acessada através dos serviços de autocarros e metro, além de algumas balsas que partem do Porto da cidade.
