A subject after my own heart!

Library of the Inner Temple circa 1910 & published by Tuck |
The Bowring Institute in Bangalore |
Oh yes, once I return from the lake (cold, cold lake) I'd like to venture inside your last library!
ReplyDeleteLibraries used to be so big and permanent looking. Now they are not. I think if I could zap myself into any of these three pictures, I would chose the one in the middle.
ReplyDeleteThe library in New South Wales looks very imposing.
ReplyDeletethe library in Bangalore is so, so British. I wonder if it still looks like that today.

Such exciting architecture in those buildings.
ReplyDeleteWhat grand old buildings! I especially like the columns on the New South Wales library and the turret style top on the Library of the Inner Temple.
ReplyDeleteNice photos. I like the first two because the library in South Wales looks like it has a large interior, which can only mean one thing...LOTS of wonderful books! Also, the second photo featuring the Inner Temple library actually looks like a painting.

Three fine libraries; I'd be pleased to try them all.
ReplyDeleteThey all look huge! I'd love to wander around each one.
