Depicted is the theater in Ghent, Belgium.
For me this building is another proof that the Belgians have a keen eye for architectural beauty.
The building is crowned by a monumental gable. A mosaic of nine meters wide and four meters high, consisting of 70,000 ceramic stones in 500 different shades, has been incorporated into a round-arched tympanum. It is a mythological scene designed by Constant Montald and depicts Apollo in his sun chariot, accompanied by the nine muses, recognizable by their respective attributes.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

I seem to keep faving copies of your Ghent images, C., for good reason. At a closer approach than most of those in this series, I can see at least a dozen beautiful and individual architectural details in just this one photo, worth zooming way in and capturing. There are so many that, however many submissions with which you finish the series, you can multiply it exponentially by the details found on these amazing structures. How do you keep from becoming dizzy from all your choices?
