These architecture prints illustrate the wide variety of architecture both by parts of the world as well as the passing of time. From ancient Roman to medieval Gothic cathedrals and post-modernist and much in between, if you love architecture, I think you’ll be fascinated by the varied and vibrant architectural wall art on display here.
The ancient Egyptian ruins at Abu Simbel are notable for many reasons. In antiquity, the massive temple you see in this black and white print was carved from a solid mountain to honor the pharaoh, Ramses The Great. Ramses II reigned for over 60 years, a period in which he built temples and cities on…
I will never forget visiting the Egyptian Village of Daraw seen in this print. Understandably, much of our visit through Egypt was crisscrossing the paths of so many tourists before us. It’s a taste of Egyptian life, but not the same as seeing a city relatively unaffected by the tourist trade. On our journey on…
I truly love featuring historic places like Key West’s Sloppy Joe’s Bar. For those not familiar with the history of Key West, this was a haunt of Ernest Hemingway himself. The present bar on Duval Street and the original on Green Street were both owned by one of Hemingway’s friends, Joe Russell. In fact, it’s…
Perhaps I am not impartial since I grew up in Montezuma, but this neoclassical plantation style gem is the epitome of the old south to me. I half expect a southern belle to descend the steps, don’t you? It’s truly a classic plantation style house that conjures memories of gracious southern living. Don’t you think?…
It’s mind boggling how much truly ancient history stands on the streets of modern Egypt. Never mind the treasures that may still lie beneath the desert sands waiting to be discovered. By the time we reached Luxor, we had seen so many Egyptian temples and still had more to come. Running low on time, I…
This mosque ceiling print from within the historic Mosque of Muhammad Ali in Cairo is a delightful combination of looking at the world a little differently and, of course, the amazing architecture. From the moment we entered this amazing space, I found my eyes constantly going upward. The level of detail in those soaring domes…
Visiting Saint Catherine’s Monastery at the foot of Mount Sinai was an amazing experience. Santa Katarina is one of the oldest Christian monasteries in the world. It was ordered to be built by Emperor Justinian in 565 AD. The high walls of this ancient monastery protected it across the centuries. Until modern times the only…
The ancient pyramids of Egypt were always on my bucket list. Although honestly, walking on the Giza plateau was one of those faraway dreams. One of those ideas that seemed at best far in the future. When the stars aligned and I found myself on an Egyptian adventure, it still felt like I was dreaming….
As my time in Egypt drew to a close, I had the opportunity to experience the Alabaster Mosque. The mosque seen in this Cairo print is officially the Mosque of Muhammad Ali Pasha. It is as you can see a massive piece of Classic Ottoman architecture which towers over Cairo from the summit of the…
Little did I know before visiting the ancient Egyptian Karnak Temple that there are multiple types of sphinxes. Unless you study ancient Egyptian art, you may not know that the Great Sphinx at Giza, the one we all know so well, is just one of three types of Egyptian sphinxes. Those with the head of…
When I visited Egypt, getting to Abu Simbel from Aswan required joining an early morning convoy of cars and buses. This was an Egyptian safety precaution for those visiting the ancient temple to Ramses The Great because of its proximity to Sudan. On that long morning bus ride as I tried fitfully to sleep, I…
One of my favorite areas of the Galway waterfront to walk was the Claddagh. I probably walked along there each day. I loved the seaside vibe and the smell of the salt air along Galway Bay. I never tallied up the days but I suspect I walked along here almost every day. I particularly loved…
Seeing the Egyptian Pyramids was one of those dreams I had harbored as long as I can remember. I have always been fascinated by the ancient world and you don’t get much more classically ancient than the Egyptian Pyramids. I don’t have a concrete first memory of my desire to visit Egypt. The interest goes…
During my short visit to Rome, I visited the ancient Roman Colosseum repeatedly. When I originally planned my trip to Italy, it was the ancient ruins of Rome that I was most interested in seeing. And the Roman Colosseum is, after all, one of most recognized ruins from the classical world. Today it’s essentially the…
Ancient Roman arches are truly the epitome of Rome. The first brick arches were apparently Mesopotamian, but under the Romans, the arch flourished. In the classical world, visit any old ruins, and Roman arches will almost be literally everywhere you look. The ancient Colosseum is basically one arch after another. In fact the window arch…
Paris is one of those places that’s simply gorgeous, but I think evening in Paris is especially so and was the inspiration fro this painting. The dusk skies and the glowing Paris Metro sign say Parisian to me. They speak of the art nouveau architecture that drips through Paris like droplets of water after a…
There was some ineffable quality to the Little Greek Theatre at Pompeii. Although it was in ruins, there was a haunting stillness that felt as if the actors and the audience had simply stepped away for the moment. And yet at the same time, I felt the weight of the years here. It was while…
The first day I saw St Peter’s Basilica it was a rainy winter day. The result was, as you can see from this print, that the skies above the Vatican had an incredible texture to them. And the wet reflective quality of the cobblestones in Piazza San Pietro were fantastic. There’s such a strong mood…
The unassuming Santa Maria della Concezione dei Cappuccini is probably well known to many have been to Rome. It’s the church with the famous bone crypt. That crypt decorated with the bones of Capuchin monks is said to have inspired many similar ossuaries in Europe. And it’s a strangely artistic use of the mortal remains…
My time in Sorrento on the beautiful Italian coast was short. I had read it was a great staging ground to see Pompeii and get a taste of the coast. And it definitely lived up to those expectations. On our last full day as we headed down to the Marina Piccola for a brief jaunt…
This print of the Wheatley Administration Building on the campus of Georgia Southwestern State University in Americus is a special one to me. After all, this is where I spent my undergrad years in college! Well, not in this building of course, but I certainly think it represents the campus in my mind. Georgia Southwestern…
During my stay in Ireland, I saw a good deal of the Irish seaside and it was invariably charming. From lonesome beaches and small villages to cities, I enjoyed them all. But if there’s one place that stands out in my mind as representative of the Irish seaside, it’s Galway. I spent nearly two weeks…
The old Polaris lounge is simply a fun mid-century piece of modernist design. Pictured here is a night-time view of that classic restaurant atop the Atlanta Hyatt Regency. This trendsetting Atlanta hotel, designed by John Portman, in 1967 was the first to feature an atrium in the middle of the hotel. This interior design is…
Even if you’ve never eaten at the Majestic Diner in Atlanta, there’s something about Art Deco architecture that’s likely to bring an unconscious smile to your face. And I think that’s particularly true about Streamline Moderne, of which the Majestic Diner is an example. The Majestic Diner has a sign that says it’s been serving…
My main reason for venturing out of Rome during my short time in Italy was my fervent desire to see Pompeii. The ancient ruins of this Roman town had long ago captured my imagination. The story of Pompeii is a weird mixture of tragedy and the opportunity to examine a long lost culture. That the…
In any major city, there are simply some landmarks that have to be seen. In Rome, the famous Trevi Fountain is unquestionably on that list. Not just because it’s an amazingly beautiful baroque fountain but because tradition holds that you are meant to toss coins in the fountain. The customs surrounding the number of coins…
Seeing St Peter’s Dome up close and personal was unquestionably a highlight of my multiple visits to the Vatican while I was in Rome. Walking on the roof and climbing through the interior of that great baroque church dome was both exhausting and exhilarating. And as you can tell from this print, the skies overhead…
I don’t know if there were genuinely a lot of different documentaries airing about the ancient Roman Pantheon right before I left for Italy. Or was I simply ‘finding’ them all because each one further fired my enthusiasm for that trip. Whatever the case, I watched documentary after documentary and read even more about the…
The Altare della Patria seems to be a surprisingly complicated aspect of modern day Rome. It was built over the span of decades around the start of the 20th century to honor Victor Emmanuel, the first king of a unified Italy. The monument also known as Il Vittoriano was built to symbolize national unification of…
When I made my plans to visit Italy, it was Roman Ruins I was after. Like many of us, I have always had an interest in ancient history. And Rome has long been at the center of that fascination. It’s interesting that years later, I have few memories of the long flight or indeed much…
