Sad lessons one might choose to learn about war, its consequences and the end of dynastic rule from Huis Doorn, where the second and last emperor of the short-lived late 1800’s – early 1900’s German Empire lived out his last years in exile. Such an odd notion, really, royalty, when you stop and think about it, eh? Absolute rule, too, if you ask me: bad policy, full stop.
On the screen at the left is an image of this year’s Den Bosch Carnaval Prince. (New one each year.) Adding most of the rest of my Den Bosch Carnaval photos from last month, for fun. Look for the beer-cup holder attached to a tuba, and the many frogs which are also part of the whole Den Bosch Carnaval experience 🙂
All but one of the photos in this post are taken looking out of the windows in that modern addition, up at the top of the Museum de Fundatie in Zwolle to which I linked in our prior post. One house I decided to photograph outside at street level, in the gallery below, so you can compare how it looks as seen through raindrop-bedecked window on high versus looking up from ground level.
(so much world, so little time....)
