Future Portrait Of A Billionaire's House...
Ozymandias, only an inscription and the views remain...
(From our snowy and icy morning walk yesterday... Hohenfreyberg, built & expanded between 1418-1608, burnt down (sacrificed) in 1646. Same fate for the other ruin on the neighboring hill (last image), which belonged to the father and also got destroyed previously (in 1525) by farmers of the surrounding villages...)

View of an old snowed in castle ruin with just a few remaining partial walls & tower structures, seen through (and framed by) the main gate. Plain white sky with large snow flakes.

View of an old castle ruin standing on the top of the neighboring hill in a snow storm. A broken wall fragment of another castle in the foreground. In the distance some parts of the nearby valley visible, though limited visibility due to the snow, the fog and the sun trying to break through...

A matter of perspective. A Tom Gauld editorial cartoon from a while back.

CARTOON: A landscape showing a mirror image of two medieval coastlines separated by a body of water. On each side, from he top of a hill going down to the water, a castle, a cathedral, a town building with people, and a boat setting sail for the opposite coast. One side is titled: "Our Blessed Homeland", and descending the hill, above each object (castle, cathedral, town sqare, ship): "Our glorious leader", "Our great religion", "Our noble populace", "Our heroic adventurers" On the opposite s…

David Loggan spent 12 years sketching & engraving the town & colleges of Cambridge before publishing his book of plates in 1690 as 'Cantabrigia Illustrata'. Background: museumofcambridge.org.uk/2025/

Loggan's views of Cambridge from the east, above, and the west, below. From the east, the foreground comprises ploughed fields, a flock of sheep, and huntsmen on foot and on horseback. From the west, across the river, the harvest is under way. Landmarks like the castle, colleges and churches are numbered and named. King's College Chapel stands out, as it does today.

Claude Sonnet 3.7 describes the image as: "The image shows a dark scene from what appears to be a period film or television production. Three figures are visible in dim lighting, wearing what looks like medieval or Renaissance-style dark clothing with some leather elements and distinctive design features. The scene has a somber, dramatic atmosphere with the characters positioned close together in what might be a dungeon or castle interior. The lighting is very low-key and atmospheric, creating…
