Visit My Flickr for a bigger resolution [after wikipedia] The palace is built on an artificial island that divides the lake into two parts, a smaller northern lake and a larger southern one. The palace is connected to the surrounding park by two Ionic colonnaded bridges. The façades are unified by an entablature carried by giant Corinthian pilasters that link its two floors and are crowned by a balustrade that bears statues of mythologic figures. The north façade is relieved by a central pedimented portico. On the south front, a deep central recess lies behind a screen of Corinthian columns. The building began as a bathhouse for StanisÅ‚aw Herakliusz Lubomirski, owner of adjacent Ujazdów Castle.StanisÅ‚aw August Poniatowski decided to convert it into private quarters, and it was remodeled by Domenico Merlini between 1764 to 1795. The palace was nearly destroyed by the Germans in World War II.Afterwards the palace served as a barracks. Humans define a balloon a a type of aircraft that remains aloft due to its buoyancy. Large balloons filled with hot air or buoyant gas (often hydrogen or helium) have been used as flying machines since the 18th century. The earliest flights were made with hot air balloons using air heated with a flame, or hydrogen; later, helium was used. This balloon travels against all law of physics. It’s been made out of steel and titanium, yet it’s travelling speed slightly crosses the speed of sound. Lines are an idealisation of a straight objects with negligible width and height and are usually considered to be infinitely long. One of Warsaw Old City passages. Even in middle Europe sometimes you find places from a totally different world. For a tiny slice of a moment, standing by those claustrophobic walls, made me feel like a Persian citizen somewhere away in a distant place and time. April 17th, 2009 | Conceptual| Flowers
