EXTRAVAGANCE
The beauty and detail
and sheer extravagance
of its carved stonework
has to be seen to be believed

The sculpture "Group of Four Trees" by Jean Dubuffet (France) on 1 Chase Manhattan Plaza, Wall street, NYC, height 813 ft (248 m), 60 floors, completed in 1969-72

Wonderful photo & take on theme
OdpovedaťOdstrániťhttp://bonniels.multiply.com/journal/item/194/PICTURE_PERFECT_-_EXTRAVAGANCE
OK, no one else asked, so I will. Is it supposed to be mushrooms? or butterflies on sticks? I think it's funny how everyone called it "the thing". lol. It's beautifully strange, rather makes one feel like Alice in Wonderland walking under it, I suppose. I like how it's so curvy and next to those straight towers next to it. I also like how you included the man for scale. Nice!
OdpovedaťOdstrániťAlso, thanks for visiting my page. (c:
