Valencia – Lonja de la Sede (silk exchange) The Lonja was founded in 1469 as an oil market. The design comes from a similar building in Palma. The architects were Pere Compte, Juan Yvarra, Domingo Urtiaga and Johan Corbera. The first stones were delivered on February 15, 1483, that was the day the construction begun. It therefore lasted until 1533 (50 years) until the construction with its crenellated tower and the gothic contract hall were completed. During the following centuries Lonja served as a silk market. ➽ Wiki ➽ Saturday Self-Challenge , Sa. 09.02.2019; Topic: "Patterns in color". ➽ PIP 1 – Praça Dom Pedro IV, Lisboa.

SSC – "Focus" ➽ Saturday Self-Challenge , Sa. 23.02.2019; Topic: "Focus". ➽ Siehe auch PIP. "Focus on the edge". Eine ältere Aufnahme, die ich noch gefunden habe. Übrigens: Schon gewusst? Auf den meisten Tastaturen haben die Buchstaben F und J eine kleine Erhöhung in Strichform. Diese kann man nicht nur sehen, sondern auch fühlen. Die Erhöhungen dienen dazu, die Orientierung zu erleichtern, für solche, die im Zehn-Finger-System schreiben ohne hinzusehen. F und J sind die Ausgangspositionen für die Zeigefinger.
