Exhibition

One of the things that’s always on the list when traveling, is to visit a couple of museums. The exhibition at Städel museum in Frankfurt was a wonderful experience & will remain as a precious memory for life.

Edvard Munch – Norwegian painter. His best known work, The Scream, has become one of the iconic images of world art.
Claude Monet – a French painter & founder of impressionist painting who is seen as a key precursor to modernism, especially in his attempts to paint nature as he perceived it.
Helena Schjerfbeck – a Finnish painter. A modernist painter, she is known for her realist works & self-portraits, and also for her landscapes & still lifes.

Balconies

It’s something very special with these balconies from 1950’s. It’s typical for this decade with balconies that’s cantilevered, in concrete & with steel railings – often in canvas or in corrugated steel sheet for protection or privacy.

Interior

Sometimes I ponder about how big an area you really need, without feeling trapped. I have a preference for smaller homes, that can decorate functionally with what’s needed for everyday life. The main thing is access to an outdoor area. Either way, this interior is an example of a living room in a size that fits. And looks good.
