This stained glass window belongs to Nobel-winning poet Pablo Neruda's home in Santiago, Chile. I was able to have a guided tour of the house last January. This is a small window and the picture is untouched...
The house is called "la Chascona"("Woman with the Tousled Hair") after Matilde Urrutia, the poet's third wife, and it served as a romantic hideaway before they married. The pair's passionate relationship was recounted in the 1994 Italian film Il Postino (The Postman).
And these are ice cubes made out of glass...

The people who built our present home in the early 1960's had a mouth-blown glass factory, therefore there is this tile in one of the walls ( which are actually not pink and rather peach but the light today wasn't being cooperative) :

ReplyDeleteLovely shots! I had also wanted to do stained glass, but it is NOT common here in Southern Ca (probably because we are such a new country compared to the rest of the world, and we hvae too many earthquakes!)
I love your photos!

That window is just beautiful. Love the name.
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing so wonderful as to see the light show through a rainbow of colors. I took a stained glass class and made several treasured pieces. This is a classic art that everyone can enjoy.
