The Canadian Museum of Civilization



The Canadian Museum of Civilization presents over 10,000 years of Canada's pre-history, history and culture. The Museum building is an architectural masterpiece -- a symbolic depiction of a land sculpted by winds, waters and glaciers at the end of the Ice Age, when humans first crossed into Canada from Asia.

Interesting buildings, dear Inda! The Fuller building seems so slim, that it looks fragile!

We have a great living Italian architect in Renzo PIANO ... see the new Music Park in Rome ...



The project



The Music Park was inaugurated in 2002.

Love, Margherita

It's the biggest Auditorium of the world ...

Thank you all for posting so many beautiful images while I was away.

Your additions to this post are wonderful Margherita.

The Sibelius Monument in Finland is very unusual. It should probably be under sculpture, but I will sneak it in here since we don't have very much from Finland

I am going back in time . I don't think that we have posted Monet's house at Giverny where he painted beautiful pictures and also created a lovely garden.

Paris, France

The Arc de Triomphe, Place de l'Étoile
Jean François Thérèse Chalgrin and completed by Guillaume Abel Blouet
begun 1806; completed 1833-36

The arch was commissioned by Napoleon as a tribute to the French army.

(Sorry, I already posted this on a previous page but do not dare to delete it in cas I am going to delete other replies as well.)

Thank you Margherita for your fabulous input, and thank you Vicky for coming back.

I have had very little time lately, but will be able to spend a bit more time here soon.

Russian Wooden Houses

At the end of the 19th century, beginning of the 20th century, Arkhangelsk was a flourishing city, because of the timber-industry. More and more houses were built and the city became the world's largest ensemble of wooden architecture.
