Gegen Abend auf den Basteifelsen, die Sicht war klar, es hatte zuvor kurz geregnet.

Se trata de la primera escultura instalada canal veneciano y pretende sensibilizar a la población sobre los efectos destructivos del cambio climático.. La estructura, obra del artista Lorenzo Quinn. Se trata de la primera escultura instalada en el Gran Canal y su objetivo es denunciar y sensibilizar a la población sobre los efectos destructivos del cambio climático. El artista afincado en Barcena explica en su página web que las manos del hombre tienen el mismo poder tanto para salvar como para destruir. Se trata así de una metáfora acertada para hablar de la necesidad de sostener un patrimonio único como es Venecia. Dos manos blancas gigantescas sosteniendo la fachada de uno de los palacios que se asoman al Gran Canal de Venecia. Esta dantesca imagen es el nuevo objetivo que los turistas capturan estos días en la romántica ciudad. El edificio es nada menos que el hotel Ca Sagredo, uno de los más populares de la ciudad, y las manos parecen mantenerlo a flote como si los cimientos del inmueble corriesen peligro de removerse y propiciar su derrumbe. Un concepto nada descabellado, pues los tesoros arquitectónicos de la ciudad italiana están destinados a desaparecer, erosionados por la incesante subida del mar como consecuencia del calentamiento global.

(The main picture of the forecourt is a stitch of three images.) Kasteel Twickel (Twickel Castle), near Delden, is located, for almost seven centuries in the middle of a beautiful estate, reaching out over five parishes. The oldest parts of the castle - among which the tower at the front - date from the 15th century. Throughout the centuries the castle has been extended and beautified. The buildings, stables and coach house, situated in the forecourt, where added to the castle during the 18th century. Twickel Castle is still inhabited and surrounded by a beautiful park and garden ( www.ipernity.com/doc/294067/48906350 ). Twickel estate is a unique historical country estate in Twente, in the East of the Netherlands. It covers no less than 4.100 hectares and includes 150 farms with agricultural land and meadows, interspersed with moorland, fens and woods. The oak woods have long been famous, not just because of their beauty, but also because of the quality of the wood they produce. The characteristic farms can be recognised by their black-and-white shutters. Between 1347 and 1953, Twickel was in the possession of successive members of the same family. The last owner, Baroness Van Heeckeren van Wassenaer-Countess of Aldenburg Bentinck, who had no children of her own, decided in 1953 to establish the Twickel Foundation in order to preserve the estate. When she set up the foundation, Baroness Van Heeckeren determined that the castle should remain inhabited.
