Kiddo wanted to read the photo book of last year's trip to #France and we happened upon this photo of #streetArt in #Toulon - perfect for #SchiffSamstag #SchiffsSamstag #shipSaturday

#mural #Kunst #sculpture #art #artInstallation #Kunstinstallation #ship #Schiff #Frankreich #Provence

A vibrant and whimsical sculpture of the prow of a ship juts out from the side of a tall, light-coloured building under a bright, clear blue sky. The ship's hull is painted in bold, horizontal stripes of various colours including orange, blue, yellow, and green, giving it a playful, almost Lego-like appearance. The figurehead, a golden-yellow sculpted woman, is prominently displayed at the very front. A long, angled bowsprit extends outwards, painted in shades of yellow and blue.
Above the sculpture, the building's facade features a painted mural depicting the sails of the same ship, rendered in swirling patterns of blue and white, creating a sense of movement. Palm trees frame the left side of the image, adding a touch of tropical ambiance. Below the sculpture, a paved area with benches and a partially visible parasol suggests a public space where people can sit and admire the artwork. A few individuals can be seen in the background, giving a sense of scale to the large installation.

I love this Art Nouveau style version of the Glasgow Coat of Arms on one of the buildings of the old Lambhill Street School in the Kinning Park area of the city.

Am Art Nouveau take on the Glasgow Coat of Arms.

I just finished this dragon pot. The body and the lid are wheel thrown. All the other details are sculpted by hand. I fired it in my wood kiln at 1250°C.

A lidded pot in the shape of a terracotta colored dragon on four legs. The body is round and has thick spikes on the back. The wings are folded close to the body and the legs are short. The head has two pointy horns on top, ears like those of a cow and a silly and mischievous expression.

The same pot but with the lid slightly lifted up by a hand

The same pot but seen from the side. Now the spiky tail is visible.

A surprising aspect of walking through the city centre of Trondheim recently was in spotting the monument in its centre which we gathered was honouring the wielding of the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch and defeating the Rabbit of Caerbannog.

Against an overcast, grey-white sky we're looking up at a sculpture on a plinth atop a tall, stone column. The stone is all dark. looking as if it's been exposed to the elements for a long time and that the prevailing conditions in this area are cold and damp. The sculpture is of a man in medieval dress with a conical helmet. His left arm is held in front of him and he clutches an orb with a short, thick cross in its top.

"Lost Dogs' Disco" is an installation currently in Aotea Square. It's a collection of illuminated inflatable dogs with eyes that light up to accompanying electronic music. They're much more interesting once it's dark out. #Auckland #TamakiMakaurau #art #somethingBeautiful #sculpture https://www.aucklandlive.co.nz/show/lost-dogs-disco

Here's one of the new #gargoyles of #MagdeburgCathedral for #SpookySaturday

I love this one! I wish I had a better camera to capture more details

#Magdeburg #MagdeburgerDom #Wasserspeier #gargoyle #Gothic #Gotik #architecture #Architektur #stonework #MiddleAges #medieval #Mittelalter #masonry #cathedral #Dom #church #Kirche #grotesque #sculpture

A low-angle, close-up shot captures the intricate architectural details of a Magdeburg Cathedral. The structure is predominantly grey, with variations in tone suggesting age and exposure to the elements.
The focal point is a grotesque gargoyle figure, positioned on the left side of the frame. It is carved from the same grey stone as the building and features a somewhat humanoid face with large eyes and a downturned mouth, combined with bat-like wings that extend downwards. Patches of green moss or lichen are visible on its surface, indicating its age and exposure to moisture.
To the right of the gargoyle, a section of the building's facade shows ornate Gothic-style arched windows or niches, also constructed from grey stone. Above these architectural elements, more detailed stonework and mouldings are visible, running horizontally across the building's surface. The texture of the stone is rough and uneven, with signs of weathering.

Love this sculpture by Francis Derwent Wood, Johan Keller and Richard Ferris over the entrance to the former British Linen Bank building on Govan Road in Glasgow.
