Just getting back from several days away. Until I get a post together over the weekend, here's a little challenge. Can you tell where I am? Name the city and place.
Hint: Let me be frank; if you've been to the Louvre, it may lead to victory.
I won't publish any correct answers so everyone can have a chance to figure it out.
It looks like the Getty to me...
ReplyDeleteNice photo - cool composition!
ReplyDeleteMy "guess" is Frank Lloyd Wright's Darwin Martin house in Buffalo. But I must confess there's no way I could have figured it out without your hint! Even though I was at the Louvre in May.
ReplyDeleteOak Park, IL; Frank Lloyd Wright Home & Studio. Hope you had a great time!
ReplyDelete...Where ya been, Slim Jim??
ReplyDeleteI think visiting Frank LLoyd Wright...Illonois?
Well, I know that looks like the Winged Victory of Samothrace, but it ain't the Louvre (red brick? no). A replica...where?
ReplyDeleteHope you had fun. Was wondering about you...

Hmmm. Thought I knew. Maybe not...
ReplyDeleteNot Paris???
ReplyDeleteWalley World.
ReplyDeleteGreat post. I was thinking Unity Temple in Oak Park, but I think your other reader is correct. I have always loved FLW's urns. Thanks for sharing.

Frank liked old Nike and put her in lots of places, including his own home...I agree that this is in his Oak Park home/studio.
ReplyDeleteEver read "Loving Frank?"
It's grand. Like his work!
I ♥ artists, especially the crazy-genius ones. They shape civilization, whether we are ready or not for them to do so. In hindsight we are appreciative, but while they challenge us- most people turn their heads and go pffffft.
Hope you had a grand time on vacation :)
Looks nice but not a clue but if we know you it was somewhere interesting!

P.S. Love my spiralizer!

Have to say I don't know. It looks so familiar yet I know I've never been there...
ReplyDeleteI know exactly where you are because I live right around the corner from this beauty! That is the Darwin martin House in Buffalo, New York! I can't wait to read about your trip here!
ReplyDeleteKristin
Is that the Darwin Martin house in Buffalo, NY? I visited over the holidays, and I think I recognize the winged victory in the conservatory!
ReplyDeleteI wonder, if I am correct and you spent some time here in Buffalo, N.Y., did you get a chance to go on the Buffalo Garden Walk?
ReplyDeleteKristin
You guys are so smart! Rosalind was the first one to get it. I visited my family in Western New York and visited the beautifully restored Darwin Martin complex designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. More pictures will follow.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the tour.
ReplyDelete:-)

Wright's house in WI?
ReplyDeleteWhoops! Just saw the answer. I guess I meant NY...;)
ReplyDeleteYour Frank clue has to be Frank Lloyd Wright...it looks like that...I've been to the Louvre, so that's the Winged Victory...I still don't know...
ReplyDeleteoh...I just read the comments. looking forward to seeing more photos!
ReplyDeletethat was fun!
ReplyDeleteBuffalo, Frank Lloyd Wright Martin House ... :)
ReplyDeleteI'm lagging in my attendance and sitting in the back of the class - but glad to be getting an education anyway!
ReplyDeleteDarwin Martin House, Buffalo, NY (my home town)! And did you happen to see the gardener's cottage around the corner - it's spectacular!
ReplyDeleteOh boy, another educational road trip to help me grow. Cannot wait to hear/see all about it.

Just came across your post today. I must complicate you on your amazing shot of Frank Lloyd Wright's Martin Complex.
ReplyDeleteThe Winged Victory juxtoposed with the distintive urns identify it.
The exterior looks like the Getty in LA, but Winged Victory is at the Louvre, so I do not know, although the planter is reminiscent of FL Wright's style.
