Esterházy Mansion and Artists' Studio (Esterhazy-kastély, Alkotóház), Szigliget.
The classicist palace was built in the early 18th century. In 1953 it became home to the Writers' Studio (Irók Alkotóháza), later of musicians and painters. Many of the nearby manorial buildings are listed heritage.
After Count Pál Esterházy bought the palace and its estates in 1912 it was given its final form. It was through extensive architectural redesign that its current, unified form was achieved. The results of this work are the terraces and the rooms below them, the small towers, the mansard roof, and the formation of the roofline and the overall view of the front facade. The vernacular Baroque and Classicist segments of the house are well separated. Later renovations were made in order to suit the needs of the Studio.
The park is a nature reserve and is open to visitors.

Woo hoo ... I have a window cleaner :)))
For the last 41 years, the OH would not let me have a window cleaner, so I had to clean them myself. He cleaned 1 window once, and made it look dirtier!
But now his brain has turned to mush, he's forgotten that he objected, and finally someone else will clean my 27 windows, 5 doors and 4 metre square conservatory, every 6 weeks. I still have the insides to do, but at least I'm not toppling about on a ladder outside :)

As they were demolishing the Muir Building these windows were made visible for the first time in over fifty years. In the name of greed and progress these windows and the building are no longer.
I don't even know the name of the town. I do remember it was in Northern Italy above Milan and close to the border with Switzerland. Near the very old town's round village fountain and down a narrow alley, there in the middle of a block-length 2 story high wall was this single tiny window. Across the window, set into the foot deep walls, was a handmade twisted iron bar. Tied to the bar with string was this pot and it's three lovely geraniums.
Burano is an island in the Venetian Lagoon, northern Italy; like Venice itself, it could more correctly be called an archipelago of four islands linked by bridges. It is situated near Torcello at the northern end of the Lagoon, and is known for its lacework.
Burano is also known for its small, brightly-painted houses, popular with artists. The colours of the houses follow a specific system originating from the golden age of its development; if someone wishes to paint their home, one must send a request to the government, who will respond by making notice of the certain colours permitted for that lot.
