Sepia Spell -Stairway to Heaven

Okay, okay… I admit, this is n o t the actual stairway to heaven, b u t in my mind it´s pretty close to it 😉

As it is, these steps are leading up to the second floor of the Old National Gallery outside the building.

The Old National Gallery is situated on the Museum´s Island and has been build around 1867 – 1876. The Gallery is showing a collection of Neoclassical, Impressionist, Romantic and Early Modernist artwork, like The Monk by the Sea by Caspar David Friedrich or Adolph von Menzel´s Eisenwalzwerk (Iron Rolling Mill).

The Old National Gallery is one of my favourite art galleries here in Berlin, not only because of it´s magnificent collection but also because of its amazing architecture, of which I´m going to share with you more pictures of mine in the following weeks. 🙂

      2. I can imagine especially since it’s just the same around here 😯 I already took out my winter coat and scarf and wore them today which seems far to early but I didn’t want to freeze! Wish you a lovely evening all cuddled together and enjoying a hot drink! 😄🐕🐾☕

I appreciate that and you very much!! 🙂 Hope you have a lovely day and that you can enjoy the sunshine – here autumn has come and it´s awfully cold and rainy 😦 Well, that´s how the seasons work I guess 😉 Though I could live with endless summer! xxx
