Textbook #neoromanian style #architecture house, built in the mid- #1930s in Dorobanti area of #bucharest ; arch. I. Theodosiu, photographed today in quite a wintry weather, but image processed through a series of filters. #architecturehistory #casedeepoca #architecturephotography #nationalarchitecture

#earlychristian type of #cross , of what I like to call the #ravenna cross, the only type of cross, which I like. This one is on a #shrad of #pottery found in the ancient #blacksea #greekcolony of #istrios / #histria . #casedeepoca #architecturephotography #architecturehistory

I am bringing from storage my collection of The New York Review of Books, which is quite exotic in #bucharest . This is a part of it. I used to be a subscriber to the paper editions of the #nyrb , London Review of Books and Times Literary Supplement, through which I achieved a great deal of my veneer of #culture :) #newyorkreviewofbooks #casedeepoca

#helios or #sol , the #sungod represented at the end of a #marble frieze from #istrios / #histria , the #greekcolony at the mouths of the #danube . It dates from #helenistic era, and the marble is not found locally, but has been brought from the island of #thasos in the Aegean Sea, the closest source of marble for the temples of the #backsea colonies. #architecturehistory #casedeepoca #architecturephotography #architecture #studytrip #dobrudja #dobruja #southeasteurope

#grainstorage pots of large volume found in houses in the ancient #greekcolony of #istrios / #histria on the western #blacksea coast, the province of #dobrudja . The main economic activities of Istrios were the trade in fish, as the mouths of the #danube are nearby, and #grains , produced by the fertile fields surrounding the colony, and cultivated by the #scythian tribes, whose many funerary tumuli or gurgans can be seen around Istrios. #architecturehistory #casedeepoca #architecturephotography #architecture #studytrip #dobruja

A #photocollage with #architectural snaps from our Sep-Oct this year #madridstudytrip . #architecturehistory #casedeepoca #architecturephotography #architecture #studytrip #madrid
