This pump can be found in the courtyard of Amsterdam's former orphanage. (Now the Amsterdam Museum). First I had to look carefully to see if it was really a pump. It is artfully incorporated into the masonry facade. Would be nice to find this spirit back in our current buildings.
Muy buena figura decorativa. En los últimos tiempos, no hay tanta decoración.

A beautiful detail.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenSuch things would be so utilitarian these days.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI've never seen something like this before. Nice decorative feature with great details.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIt looks like a gun directed into its mouth!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenBeautiful architecture of the past. Yes
BeantwoordenVerwijderenGood to see there is a hook for hanging a bucket to collect water. Always good to see art incorporated into utilitarian objects.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIm kind of thinking that the pump wasn't originally attached or a part of the lion, loving the new header btw
