Hi Everybody!
It's weekend - enjoy!
For Art Journal journey, light and darkness, I have another hybrid piece:
(Digital elements from Mischief Circus and Serif.)
Yesterday I visited the Hetjens museum in the Altstadt (old town),
directly by the old customs harbour. They have a wonderful
collection of ceramic and porcelain.
Here the view from the ground floor to the harbour:
Outside I found a gull who eagerly shared the remains
of my breakfast:
There were great views of the Altstadt from the upstairs windows:
This piece was near the entrance:
This is a Russian piece showing King Solomon:
I love the African ceramic lion-head:
I will show more pictures of all the wonders to be seen there
when I have sorted them. On the way home I passed through the
square in front of the Town Hall, and got a good shot
of the Christmas Market, the town hall and the Big Wheel:
Have a great day, take care
and thanks lot for coming by!
Lovely journal page with the beautiful lantern, and thanks for sharing the photos. They are all good, but the ones with the gull and ship are my faves today. I remember going to that museum many years back, but I think they have enlarged it in the meantime. Hugs, Sarah

Love the lantern piece and the photos of old town. Its a pretty place, and I wish we had Christmas markets here. I bet they have a wonderful tradition behind them. And wow, love those ceramic pieces. You've been really been out and about lately, so glad you are sharing! Happy Saturday. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThat lantern is beautiful. I wish I knew digital art, because you make some of the most wonderful art that way.
ReplyDeleteLoved the Hetjens museum and the ceramics and porcelain. So much different than the glass. Yo8u have some incredible museums that are all centrally located.
What a fantastic final shot of the wheel, the Christmas market, the town hall, and the carousel!
A wonderful page with the old glowing lantern. Beautiful quote as well.
ReplyDeleteAnother amazing place you found to visit. There seems no end to these amazing places you find and all the treasures that they hold. Love the views from the windows and balconies as well.
Have a great day
Love Chrissie xx
Loved the lamp - Light of the World(ish) - loved the boat, taken from a great angle.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the museum pieces and the lovely view of the market.
Thoroughly enjoyable start to the day, thank you

ReplyDeleteIts a wonderful lantern on your great journal page Valerie and a lovely quote as well. Super photos, you are lucky to have the museums and galleries close enough to visit. The Lion and the Russian piece would be my favourites today.

ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures, I enjoyed everyone! What is that interesting boat in the harbour?
ReplyDeleteSandy xx
It's an old eel-catcher - the people used to catch them in the Rhine.
DeleteThanks Valerie - I found that old boat quite fetching!

Was it a cold day as I thought that Gull looked a bit fed up.
Hope you've had a nice weekend. Gill xx
The gull had been 'fighting' with 2 pigeons who were walking around his pitch! And yes, we have a lot of museums and galleries here.
