Rare notamermaid Posted February 16, 2021 Author #2577 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Could it be one tower of Keukenhof Castle in the Keukenhof which is on a canal, but an excursion from a Rhine River cruise? notamermaid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daisi Posted February 17, 2021 #2582 Share Posted February 17, 2021 This is what the inside of the building looks like: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare notamermaid Posted February 17, 2021 Author #2583 Share Posted February 17, 2021 So, a protestant church or chapel. With a clear maritime theme, not just a random weather vane. Still no idea, though. notamermaid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Think not, that one has a rooster as a wind vane. It is very unlikely that they would have excursions going to the island of Texel. I am still searching and have no clue.

Renmar Posted February 17, 2021 #2586 Share Posted February 17, 2021 An other wild guess, Koger Church in Koog aan de Zaan. Probably not because that one has a rooster as a wind vane as well. Theo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare notamermaid Posted February 17, 2021 Author #2588 Share Posted February 17, 2021 There are ship weather vanes in Amsterdam, but the roofs I have seen do not fit. I have not got much further with a German search, a couple of references to Delft, but it is vague, I do not have a building as such. I think this photo has beaten me, last try: some church in Delft. notamermaid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daisi Posted February 17, 2021 #2590 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Ok.. guess I stumped you... it's the church in Zuiderzeemuseum. I can't find the name of it, but I was thinking @Renmarmay have guessed as it was so close to his last photo. OK @notamermaid, your call as it's your game. Go for CA's horses, or should we call a wild card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go for CA's horses, or should we call a wild card? I like the idea of figuring out the horses, but you say what is happening as we could not guess. Would you like to hand to canal archive and the horses? I think we have one guess for them. If canal archive would like to pick it up from there? Again, you two please decide... notamermaid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renmar Posted February 17, 2021 #2596 Share Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) Wild guess; National Museum, Porto, Douro river. Looks like native art like they do in the Arizona & New Mexico.

Canal archive Posted February 17, 2021 #2598 Share Posted February 17, 2021 They are exact copies of the originals because to expose them to natural light and air keeps damaging them. As far as I can remember there where at least 10 framed examples to my mind the art is beautiful. It’s not Portugal or the Douro. CA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare gnome12 Posted February 17, 2021 #2600 Share Posted February 17, 2021 If I remember my trip to Lascaux II correctly, it didn't use framed copies of the cave art, it duplicated the caves and the art as they would have been seen in the original Lascaux caves.
