It has similar brickwork on the tower at the entrance.<br /><br /><a href="http://artdecobuildings.blogspot.com/2009/05/byfas-abbotsford.html" rel="nofollow">http://artdecobuildings.blogspot.com/2009/05/byfas-abbotsford.html</a> <br /><br />Helen, this site has some pictures of the Dutch Pavilion from the Paris 1925 Exposition. I think the brickwork on the back wall is extrodinary.<br /><br /><a href="http://en.nai.nl/content/341700/an_award_for_j.f._staal" rel="nofollow">http://en.nai.nl/content/341700/an_award_for_j.f._staal</a><br /><br />Art, a curious bit of European brickwork in California!David Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08559022801796129763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5989779602103737857.post-41495994163633567802011-03-09T00:41:28.093+11:002011-03-09T00:41:28.093+11:00curious ...curious ...Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03067751575972567415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5989779602103737857.post-78852944407193862912011-03-09T00:01:18.398+11:002011-03-09T00:01:18.398+11:00Very different from what we normally see in Austra...Very different from what we normally see in Australia. Well done!<br /><br />I would love to see an image of the Dutch Pavilion at the 1925 Paris Exposition. It would be interesting for two reasons:<br />1. 1925 was as early as it gets for Deco fairs, so Miller and Pflueger must have gone over to Paris themselves OR had seen publications about the exposition that were quickly written up. <br /><br />2. The Netherlands isn't usually thought of as a major influence on North America. Miller and Pflueger must have simply loved the Dutch pavilion.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5989779602103737857.post-64256457492481410532011-03-08T22:38:02.862+11:002011-03-08T22:38:02.862+11:00What an excellent building, and you have done a gr...What an excellent building, and you have done a great job at capturing it's qualities, I especially love the last photograph in your series, looking up like that has given a great dramatic angle and the brick work is simply stunning!Thomas Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10295062570302129782noreply@blogger.com
