The tiny camera's tiny battery ran out so I went back to my reading. The note with the sculpture says "This bronze and copper sculpture contrasts a series of small human forms with the architectural weight of on oversize staircase. The artwork has a philosophical aspect by reflecting on the effect of reading on the spirit - 'the more I read the smaller I feel'." Crikey, I dunno about you but if reading made me feel like that I'd stop.
"To muse, to creep, to halt at will, to gaze ... such sweet wayfaring"
William Wordsworth
But not original, you realise? I have a book on a shelf behind me about the original and the fire ... 1970s ... not sure.
ReplyDeleteNo I didn't realise. So it is a nice facsimile of old like QVB.
DeleteWhat a wonderful Olde-World style arcade Joan I'd love to spend an afternoon shopping there.... when I fist saw your thumbnail I though you had jetted off to Paris !!
ReplyDeleteIt's been a long while since I visited Paris.
ReplyDeleteI love arcades, original or not.
