Histoire éternelle

la misère ou l’opulence

selon votre rive

Newport, Rhode Island gained a reputation as a playground for the rich and is home to some of the most impressive mansions from America's gilded age, but the area has always been home to a working maritime industry, as well, with a rich nautical history. Castle Hill Light is small at only 34', and far from opulent, but it performs its duty with the steadfast resolve of a New England waterman, regardless of the conditions.

 

Remotely located at the end of Ocean Drive, this granite guardian is an active navigation aid for all vessels entering the East Passage of Narragansett Bay between Conanicut Island (seen in the background) and Aquidneck Island.

Opulenta, sontuosa e ricca come una nobile dama in grande sfarzo, sicura della sua bellezza. Così si presenta quella che molti definiscono come la rosa più bella del mondo, la rosa ‘Pierre de Ronsard’, creata dal francese Meilland e spesso denominata non a caso ‘Eden Rose’.

* Detalle de “El Gran Canal”. “La Riva del vin” (La Ribera del vino). Venecia.

 

* La Riva del vin circunda el Gran Canal desde el Puente de Rialto hasta la iglesia de San Silvestre en el lado del sestiere de San Polo. Es uno de los pocos tramos del Gran Canal flanqueado por recorridos peatonales. El nombre deriva del hecho de que en este lugar comenzaron a llegar y a amarrar barcos cargados de vino, una costumbre que se prolongó hasta casi mediados del siglo XIX.

 

Evocaremos aquellos versos del romántico José Zorrilla (poeta del s. XIX) en estos fragmentos de su canto:

 

…Allí está, Venecia, la dueña opulenta

de antiguos y nobles y libres blasones,

Venecia la hermosa, la villa que cuenta

que a sueldo tenía soberbias naciones,

señora del mar.

Que cuenta que un día imperios y reyes

su gala envidiaron, su nombre temieron,

y el mar y la tierra besaron sus leyes,

y enviáronle buques, soldados le dieron;

porque ella supiera batirse y triunfar.

Un día a sus ojos la tierra callaba,

un día su nombre la tierra llenaba.

¡Reír, cantar, beber, corta es la vida!

Reír, hasta que seca la garganta

niega paso a la voz enronquecida;

cantar, hasta que el alba se levanta,

que yace en el Adriático dormida.

¡Opulenta Venecia, ríe y canta,

ríe y canta, señora de los mares,

que la risa y la voz cubren el llanto;

y mientras roe el tiempo tus pilares,

y deslustra la lluvia el áureo manto,

risa y juego y festines y cantares,

rueden las horas del dolor en tanto...

 

(JOSÉ ZORRILLA. A Venecia.)

 

No mires la opulencia

como un don de cierta gente

que sólo quiere y desea poseer,

porque siempre encontrarás

a personas que aún sabiendo

que tener y poseer

les abre muchos caminos,

no buscan ese tener,

ya que bien saben y conocen

que tener nunca da el ser.

La opulencia y el poder

es ese pequeño reflejo

que con un poquito de aire

apenas lo logras ver.

Sólo resiste y muy firme,

aquello que no se ve

y transforma a la persona

en ser y no en cosa

que es lo que se busca tener.

The Bourguiba Mausoleum sits on the northern edge of Monastir cemetery. Its opulent splendour, topped with a golden dome, is a tribute to Tunisia's first president, Habib Bourguiba after independence from the French. Built in 1963, this burial mosque holds the bodies of the ex-President as well as his family. Two 25 m slender minarets are made of Italian marble, while the facade is covered with beautifully delicate tiling work. The tomb of Bourguiba itself sits amid a dazzling interior of glass-inlay and underneath a spectacular chandelier.

Wer nach dem Betrachten der Außenansicht eine opulente Innengestaltung erwartet hat, wird enttäuscht.

 

"Die strenge Lebensführung der Zisterzienser spiegelte sich in ihren schlichten Bauten wider. Die Bauten sollten nüchtern und ohne Zierrat, ohne Schmuck und Gold gehalten sein. 1218 verbot das Generalkapitel, die oberste Instanz in der straffen zentralistischen Führungsstruktur des Ordens, sogar bunte Kirchenfußböden. Zwar fand die asketische Disziplin ihre Entsprechung in einer einfachen, klar gegliederten Architektur, dennoch entstanden sehr ansehnliche und aus heutiger Sicht eindrucksvolle Bauten. Die Mönche setzten, um bei allen selbstauferlegten Beschränkungen eine dennoch ansprechende Ästhetik zu erreichen, neben verschiedenen Fries-Formen insbesondere zwei stilbildende Mittel ein: die Backsteintechnik und die Grisailletechnik als spezielle Form der Glasmalerei für die Kirchenfenster."

Allerdings entschädigt die schöne, bereits von außen erkennbare halbrunde Apsis.

Leider wurde dort gerade für das Konzert aufgebaut und geprobt, sodaß ich davon keine Nahaufnahme habe.

In this opulent scene harkening back to when the mammoth Missabe Yellowstones thundered across the Cloquet River on this magnificent trestle, the IC 6264 thunders southward in the third notch.

 

End sarcasm.

Le Marais Audubon (Loire-Atlantique) où j'aime aller photographier les oiseaux est couvert d'opulents buissons d'Eglantiers qui vont du blanc à diverses nuances de rose. C'est sans doute la fleur sauvage que je préfère 🌸

C'est aussi la première fois où je photographie une fleur avec un zoom et je suis agréablement surprise du résultat même si je lui préfèrerai la légèreté du 50mm ou du macro !

The Audubon Marsh (France) where I love to photograph the birds is covered with opulent Dog Roses bushes. It's the wild flower I prefer 🌸

It was also the first time I took a photo of a flower with a zoom and I am quite surprised of the result. But I could prefer a lighter lens like the 50mm or the macro !

Schloss der Arbeit

  

Prunkvolle Backsteinfassaden und opulente Giebel mit Ecktürmchen rund um den grünen Ehrenhof erinnern auf den ersten Blick eher an eine Adelsresidenz als an eine Schachtanlage, auf der Kohle gefördert wurde. Genau dies war Teil der Bauidee. Heute ist das „Schloss der Arbeit“ zweifellos eines der schönsten und außergewöhnlichsten Zeugnisse der industriellen Vergangenheit in Deutschland.

  

Kaum mehr vorstellbar ist heute, dass das Ensemble nach der Stillegung in den 1960er Jahren zugunsten einer Schnellstraße abgerissen werden sollte. Wichtigstes Objekt im Kampf um den Erhalt war die Maschinenhalle mit dem eindrucksvollen Jugendstilportal – heute eine Ikone der Industriekultur. Der Erhalt des Vorzeige-Baus aus Stahl und Glas 1969 rettete nicht nur die gesamte Anlage, sondern markiert gleichzeitig auch den Beginn der Industriedenkmalpflege in Deutschland.

  

Doch in unserem Museum der Sozial- und Kulturgeschichte des Ruhrbergbaus sind Glanz und Repräsentationskultur der Steinkohlenbergwerke nur eine von vielen Facetten. Unsere Ausstellungen führen Sie in eine Welt harter Arbeitsbedingungen, die wir exemplarisch an Lebensläufen von Männern und Frauen veranschaulichen.

La reine du jardin ,

opulente et légère ,

poudroiement doré de soleil

I cant recall which building this was in Perth but it could be accessed off London Court. This space had a retro opulent feel to it.

25 Novembre, giornata internazionale contro la violenza sulle donne .

  

Fragile, opulenta donna, matrice del paradiso

sei un granello di colpa

anche agli occhi di Dio

malgrado le tue sante guerre

per l’emancipazione.

Spaccarono la tua bellezza

e rimane uno scheletro d’amore

che però grida ancora vendetta

e soltanto tu riesci

ancora a piangere,

poi ti volgi e vedi ancora i tuoi figli,

poi ti volti e non sai ancora dire

e taci meravigliata

e allora diventi grande come la terra

e innalzi il tuo canto d’amore.

(A tutte le donne

Alda Merini )

En tu melena, do la noche habita, temblaba una opulenta margarita como un astro fragante entre la sombra; de pronto, con tristeza, doblaste la cabeza y rodó la alta flor sobre la alfombra.

 

Sin verla, diste un paso y la flor destrozaste blandamente con tu escarpín de refulgente raso.

 

Yo, que aquello miraba, de repente con angustia infinita, al ver que la tortura deliciosa se alargaba de aquella flor hermosa, con voz que estrangulaba mi garganta

 

dije a la flor ya exánime y marchita: «¡Quién fuera tú... Dichosa margarita, para morir así... Bajo su planta!»

Rang Mahal Restaurant – Maharajas' Express

 

On board the opulent Maharajas' Express, luxury travel meets culinary excellence in its two thematic fine dining restaurants: Rang Mahal and Mayur Mahal. These restaurants not only promise gourmet meals but also an unforgettable dining ambience.

 

Rang Mahal, meaning "The Palace of Colors", is an artistic masterpiece adorned with a hand-painted fresco ceiling, creating a vibrant and regal setting that reflects India's rich cultural heritage. Together with Mayur Mahal, inspired by the elegance of the national bird, the peacock, both restaurants cater to a blend of refined taste and design.

 

Each restaurant offers seating for up to 42 guests, providing a mix of intimate tables for two and social tables for four, allowing for both private and communal dining experiences.

 

Guests aboard Maharajas' Express are treated to table d’hôte meals (included in the fare), thoughtfully curated by skilled chefs specializing in both Indian and international cuisine. The onboard menu is complemented by a carefully selected wine list, making each meal a delight for the senses.

 

All meals—including breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner—are served in these two elegant dining cars, ensuring every culinary moment on the train is an experience in itself.

An extremely opulent window display that I just had to shoot. Pano-Sabotage being what it is, a largely improvisational, and therefore, not easily determinable method yielding un-repeatable results, this and one more shot were the only ones out of about 8 that were worth keeping. That's actually not a bad ratio, considering.

 

The exuberance and joy of Spring, bursting forth in a Surrealistic display. The mannequins were surrounded, in front, behind, above, below and all around by hanging blossoms. As a straight shot it was pretty amazing, but of course, pano-sabotage turned it into something else.

"The challenge is to take an image which illustrates one of these words. If the image illustrates all the words then so much the better."

 

Well I think I have got Bold covered here, that eye contact suggests a healthy boldness. I'm not sure about the Opulent but he certainly is exotic and he is beautifully colourful so I'm hoping this close up of one of the tigers at Australia Zoo will fit the challenge theme for this week.

La Alberca no tiene grandes monumentos ni opulentos palacios. Su encanto procede de la arquitectura serrana tradicional, de las viviendas de agricultores, ganaderos o artesanos. Se nota en la plaza Mayor, el centro neurálgico, cuyas casas porticadas se sustentan sobre columnas de granito. Es un escenario popular, entre cervantino y goyesco. La abundancia de soportales señala su uso antiguo como escenario de mercado. Algunos de los bajos se han reconvertido hoy en restaurantes. En el centro de la plaza se alza un crucero del siglo XVIII con los símbolos de la Pasión de Cristo grabados.

Before heading over to the Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens, we decided to explore the city of Richmond (capital of Virginia) and stopped at the Jefferson Hotel. A very opulent place and somehow we missed the sign about not going in if we weren't actually staying there. Ooops! There were a few rose bushes outside trying bravely and beautifully to evade the winter season.

... with opulent train ...

The Hungarian Parliament Building (Hungarian: Országház, which translates to House of the Country or House of the Nation) is the seat of the National Assembly of Hungary, one of Europe's oldest legislative buildings, a notable landmark of Hungary and a popular tourist destination of Budapest. It lies in Lajos Kossuth Square, on the bank of the Danube. It is currently the largest building in Hungary and still the tallest building in Budapest.

La façade occidentale résume à elle seule l’opulence de l’église. Un ample arc en anse de panier est surmonté d’une accolade ouvragée sur laquelle figure une statue de saint André (saint patron de la Bourgogne).

Cette façade occidentale a la forme d’un vaste triangle divisé en trois bandes verticales :

- le corps central correspond à la nef et les deux pignons latéraux couvrent les bas-côtés.

- Le corps central est divisé lui-même en trois étages par des balcons ajourés.

- Le portail dont les sculptures très riches encadrent un tympan, montre Philibert et Marguerite présentés au Christ par leurs saints patrons. Sur le trumeau, on trouve saint Nicolas de Tolentin avec son étoile. L’église de Brou est placée sous son patronage. De part et d’autre, figurent les apôtres saints Pierre et Paul, patrons du prieuré bénédictin antérieur.

 

Aux niveaux supérieurs se détachent trois grandes fenêtres gothiques puis encore au dessus un pignon triangulaire terminé par un fleuron et deux pinacles. On découvre dans le portail la plupart des motifs décoratifs qui fleuriront dans l’église :

- Les marguerites : armes parlantes de la princesse,

- Le P et le M liés par les lacs d’amour,

- Les emblèmes bourguignons : la croix de saint André (en X) unie au briquet.
