the grand ideal





Taken in the New York Public Library: The top two and last photographs are un-retouched to retain the dramatic mood. Such a beautiful place for studying, although impractical in its imposing, spacious elegance. I suppose that the high ceilings catch all the whispered awe, echo the frantic scribbling of notes, contain the frustration of students--all the while tiredly maintaining its posture.
