Street photography

Commemorating visits to Nathan Phillips Square, Toronto.

Back in 2016.

Lots of detail in the big view -- click the pic or type Z.

The note under the near traffic light has another view from this corner.

Five years ago. Dundas rhymes with "spun glass", not "stunned us".

Henry Moore's Large Two Forms is probably the most popular public sculpture in Toronto, now that Ivor Lewis's statue of Timothy Eaton is less accessible to the public. Part of the collection of the Art Gallery of Ontario, from 1974 to 2017 it stood at the corner of Dundas Street West and McCaul Street, at the northeast corner of the AGO. In 2017 it was moved to Grange Park, which is owned by the AGO, at the southwest end of the gallery.

Morning rush.

An old photo re-edited. The women are on the roof of the Gardiner Museum of Ceramic Art in Toronto.

Toronto. Everything looks teeny-tiny in this view...so try the big one! Click the pick or type Z.

Technically underachieving, so more tolerable in the big view -- click the pic or type Z.

Nathan Phillips Square, Toronto, with New City Hall in back.

Spadina rhymes with Dinah rather than with Dina.

The sculpture is Henry Moore's Three-Way Piece No. 2: Archer . The PiP shows another outdoor Moore in Toronto. The Art Gallery of Ontario has 900 other pieces by him. The National Gallery in Berlin also has a cast of this -- the Toronto fundraising campaign fell short, so Moore knocked the price down in return for being allowed to sell a second cast. The Didrichsen Art Museum in Helsinki has a much smaller marble version.

I think these fellows are probably more members of the Dinkelsbühler Knabenkapelle, like the fellows in the photo in the PiP at top left. Here they are again enjoying the local cuisine at New City Hall in Toronto. More about Dinkelsbühl: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinkelsb%C3%BChl
