About the artwork
Insanely beautiful mosaic floors in the Vande Opera building in Paris.
The Opéra Garnier was designed by architect Charles Garnier in 1861, commissioned by Napoleon III. Construction began in January 1862, and was virtually halted from October 1870 to November 1873 due to the Franco-German War. The official opening took place on 5 January 1875. The interior is richly decorated with gold leaf, frescoes's and marble. The style can be called neo-Baroque, eclectic and extravagant, and as a whole belongs to the Beaux-arts. The final cost of construction was 35 million francs, which was four to five times that of the Eiffel Tower.[1]
Until the opening of the twice as large Opéra Bastille in 1989, it was the largest opera house in Europe with an area of over 11,000 m². The building is 125 metres wide, 173 metres long and 73.6 metres high. The opera hall seats 2131 spectators and the stage, about's 1,200 m², can hold 450 performers. The chandelier hanging in the central hall weighs 6 tonnes and was designed by Garnier himself. The opulent interior has a large foyer, a staircase of various marbles, a vault decorated by Isidore Pils and a ceiling painted by Marc Chagall in 1964 with a kind of Olympus paying tribute to 14 ballet and music composers with their respective works.
About PixelPower
My motto is: I am not a talker but a picture taker.
Love to go out with a camera and gradually take beautiful pictures for different purposes.
But also on my way to work, an appointment or holiday, I see shots everywhere that work well 'on the wall', online..
