At the Royal Palace in A’dam (which started life as city hall back in the 1600s or so), one walks through the impressively intimidating doorway in order to pass from the main hall into the throne room. Which, on the day of my recent visit, had nothing I could identify as a throne, thus this as the most impressive royal-symbolic image from that visit: we’ve got Atlas carrying the world, and justice being meted out just below…and it’s past those eyes you must enter the throne room. I think that upstart, wannabe bus we featured in our prior post would fit easily within this hall, plenty of room to spare. Ah, the symbolism of it all, eh? 🙂
