Das Rathaus zu Naumburg/Saale wurde ursprünglich Ende des 15. Jahrhunderts erbaut, nach einem Stadtbrand wiedererrichtet und später einigen Umbauten unterzogen. Das Renaissance-Portal erhielt das bis heute erhalten gebliebene Türblatt.
The town hall of Naumburg/Saale was originally built at the end of the 15th century, rebuilt after a town fire and later underwent some modifications. The Renaissance portal received the door leaf that has survived to this day.

The corner of the reliquary containing Eric IX of Sweden (in Sweden generally known as Erik den helige, Eric the Holy). The king was, according to legend, assassinated after attending Mass in 1160. The king was never officially canonized, but that was no hindrance for celebrating him as a saint in Sweden, where he was viewed as the ideal ruler.
The shrine is not the original reliquary for the bones. This is number three. The first was made when he left his original burial place (in Old Uppsala, Östra Aros) in 1273. The second shrine was made in the early 15th century. That one was confiscated by the king Gustaf I at the time of the Reformation. But his son Johan III donated a new shrine, this one made 1574-79 by his goldsmith Hans Rosenfälth. And this angle sits at one of the corners of that shrine, which still is at Uppsala cathedral.
And are the remains in the shrine really that of the original king? It's likely. The remains have been studied at two separate occasions, the second time in 2014-16. The skeletal parts fit with a man of the right age - both of the person at the time of death and period in time - and build (that is, it must have been someone noble who had been properly fed at a time when that was not something everyone could take for granted), and with damages to the skeleton that fits the description of his murder. DNA was also extracted which even more confirms that this very likely is the legendary king Eric.

une date très importante pour moi ! un anniversaire , ma sortie du coma. !
A VERY IMPORTANT DAY FOR ME : THE FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF MY AWAKING FROM COMA
the revival of art and literature under the influence of classical models in the 14th–16th centuries.
- another part of the §“Gardens of the Wird“ in Berlin-Marzehn, opened end of May 2008, size: 3000 m².
The Renaissance garden bears the name “Giardino della Bobolina” and refers to a 1.30 meter high marble figure in the Boboli Gardens in Florence, one of the Italian gardens of the 16th century. Characteristic are the limitation of the stylistic devices, its manageable size and clear forms. It is intended to give the impression of the villa gardens of Tuscany with stone fountains, terracottas and ancient sculptures. Boxwood hedges form the parterres, flower and ornamental plantings complement the garden with orange trees, rose trunks in tubs, topiary trees made of boxwood and herbaceous and lawn plantings. In the "Giardino segreto" gravel paths convey the "private" ambience with slabs, pavement and steps made of light gray sandstone, a wall fountain in an alcove with tufa and recessed water jets is reminiscent of a grotto.

RENAISSANCE, in this case re-awakening… into something different, beauty of the second kind.
Dried Tulip.
Sometimes some flowers will lose their petals while others will just ‘mummify’ in the warmth of the studio conditions.
I know that some people are not keen on decay and that others love it.
But here I saw such beauty still, in the shapes and the colours.
Another of my personal favourites.
Have a wonderful day, filled with love and thanks for your ALL your comments and visits, so appreciated, M, (*_*)

When I first looked at this shot in my camera, I was disappointed the Carolina Wren was so small. But after a bit I started to admire the composition - as if it was some old-world master's painting. And of course the subject was obviously a bird of many talents and areas of knowledge - a true Renaissance Wren. She was able to look at a vintage hand-washing pitcher, converted to a flower watering utensil, and see a fine place to safely raise a happy family.
The wall encircling Lucca was constructed during the Renaissance period from the early 16th to the 17th century and remains completely intact today.
The circle of walls(4 kilometers around the old city) is considered one of Europe's greatest examples of modern defense.
No longer needed for defensive purposes, in the 19th century the area became an urban park and is widely used today for leisure and sports activities.

Detroit, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 2024
The Renaissance Center (often shortened to RenCen) is a complex of seven interconnected skyscrapers in Downtown Detroit, Michigan, situated on the bank of the Detroit River.
Design and Purpose: Construction began in the mid-1970s, and it was conceived as an ambitious urban renewal project aimed at revitalizing Downtown Detroit. The cylindrical, reflective design was created to capture global attention.
Key Landmark: The tallest tower in the complex is the Detroit Marriott at the Renaissance Center, at 73 stories, which is the tallest building in Michigan and the tallest hotel skyscraper in the Western Hemisphere.
Current Function: The complex serves as the world headquarters for General Motors (GM). It also houses office space, restaurants, retail stores, and a hotel.
Significance: The RenCen is an urban landmark representing both the vision of a modern future for Detroit and its corporate legacy, visually dominating the city skyline.
Going out in style
VIA Nº29, the last westbound out of Quebec City's Gare du Palais leaves Daveluyville behind, pulling the last British built Metro-Cammell Renaissance equipment in use in the Corridor with two F40PH-2D's on the head-end.
Having roamed the Quebec City - Windsor corridor for 22 years, the last 7-car set was scheduled for retirement one week ago, but due to various mechanical issues with the new Siemens Venture trains, the REN was granted an extra week on the road. Polishing the rails between Ottawa and Quebec City at 95 miles per hour for 7 extra days.
Some might say good riddance, I for one will miss them.
