een huis uit een droom

I hadn't thought of that before, Fred, but I agree. It's quite a triumph. Thanks.

love this type house.

As Fred said, it does look like a dream house.

Yes!

what a beautiful house

I think Fred was right about it, too, Trudy -- it's like a dream house.

Awesome shot! Stay well!

Thanks, William. and the same to you.

Una preciosa construcción, efectivamente.

Beautiful building; very well captured.

A lovely looking house...............and set in beautiful grounds by the look of it.

Captured in super detail John. I like the pineapple statues on each side of the steps.

Useless information: I don't know whether this applies to Canada but apparently aside from their decorative qualities, pineapples used to be a symbol of wealth as they had to be imported at great expense.

I read about this interpretation of pineapples recently, Keith, but it had slipped my mind, of course, so thanks for reminding me. Certainly this is the richest-looking house in a rich neighbourhood, so the pineapples may simply have been a sign of wealth. It was also taken for a long time as a sign of hospitality, though, but as a sign of wealth it would be appropriate for its era, when the rich liked to flaunt their riches.

Fine architecture, John !

I agree, Ulrich. It's the gem of an impressive neighbourhood.

Most Beautiful

I agree, Annemarie.

Mahnifique !
