Sepia Scenes #10


Welcome to Sepia Scenes!

Photobucket

Photobucket

These are architectural details of the LuEsther T. Mertz Library at the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx, NY

Do you notice that there is a very fine netting covering the capital of the column? I didn't notice it until I enlarged the photo. My guess is that it's there to protect the decorative detail.

I'd like to wish everyone

A VERY HAPPY HOLIDAY AND A HEALTHY NEW YEAR!
