Wow, I never thought of taking a shot of the magnificent ceiling. Brings back wonderful memories and you have captured the delicate and complicated ceiling.
A number of years back I had a project that included researching the history and meaning of the elements in all the French provincial shields, in the mid-1900s. I look at all the details in that heraldic shield in the extreme corner and my mind boggles at the history represented. Most people would have been satisfied with shooting the entire ceiling; you've treated us to something more substantial with an image that is not only fascinating but is tack-sharp with great light and color to boot. A keeper for sure.
