Looking through the archives, I realized I had some nice photographs of stairs
that have not yet been seen on this blog. Here are three that I like.
The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston is a grand Italianate palace built by
a wealthy Bostonian to house her art collection. There is a new modern addition.
I waited for someone to come down the stairs of the modern addition.

This is the Caldwell Hart Colt Memorial in Hartford. I followed a man up the stairs.
The Cameron Gallery is an outbuilding on the property of Catherine Palace in Pushkin, Russia,
half an hour out of St. Petersburg. Alas, the entrance is roped off,
so I could not place anyone on the stairs.

In this case it was worth while to revisit your archives. I like the first one the best.
ReplyDeleteThe interior is quite striking with the golden lights. Love your photos!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great variety from modern to classical and all very lovely.
ReplyDeleteA very nice series and I do like the ornate stairs in the third photo.
ReplyDeleteLove the building and your great pictures of it...
ReplyDeleteTerrific take on grand staircases. Love that first shot with its perfect composition, and you found the perfect model to walk down.
ReplyDeleteI never miss the chance to climb stairs Jack, so good for the derrière :) I like all your stair images here but the last with the lacy railings are so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI'll vote for the Gardner stairs. I remember these. A fine museum with quite a story to it. And one that is not 'closed' yet.
ReplyDeleteFantastic stairs, Jack, and superb shots!! You do find the best things to photograph, regardless of the subject matter!! Love the last one and your composition on the first one! Terrific! A great eye to be sure! Hope your weekend is off to a great start! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteLove the first one especially, Jack!
ReplyDeleteThey're all beautiful, but I think I prefer the second one most.
ReplyDeleteojh, you are following people!! :D
ReplyDeletebut i like the last set of stairs most
Love that first shot.
ReplyDeleteThe first shot is irresistible! It was well worth your time to scroll through your archives. What other treasures are lurking there?
ReplyDeleteAnother great series of stairs! Well done.
ReplyDeleteI can`t make up my mind about the stairs.... The three stairs at the top are all number 1 for me.
