Talbot in the Annex

Talbot in the Annex
Another view of domestic architecture in the Annex neighbourhood of Toronto,

It's also a tribute to William Henry Fox Talbot. When I saw this I was immediately reminded of this photo from The Pencil of Nature:

david-g.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/fox-talbot-the-pencil-of-nature-fotolibro-photobook-03.jpg

It's a feeble kind of tribute; I think my hand moved when I was taking it and I've had to sharpen it heavily to get it to look even half decent. But you don't hear much about what a good photographer Talbot was. so here it is.

Solid. The first word that came to mind. There is something classic about it, too. Or classical? Not musically, that;s for sure. And it's a lot "cleaner" than the Talbot.

Thanks, Bob, There's something Richardsonian about it, too, which is also true of many other houses in this neighbourhood.

Brick gothic? I do love the arch.

Toronto used to have good brick, Esther. Then insulbrick arrived and everything went pear-shaped. If you like arches, visit the Annex the next time you're in Toronto. Arches all over the place.

The light does play well on the buildings in this neighbourhood, Falk. Lots of deep porches, rosy brick etc.
