3545 - Set the Sails!


These images have been taken in the second orangerie, a room with the same fascinating windows.

It houses orange and lemon trees as well as some other mediterranen plants that wouldn’t survive Austrian winters outside.

The draperies hung near some of the windows seem to provide shadow for the most delicate plants. I find it beautiful how they are not just white sheets of cloth, but look like billowing sails on the Goddess of Spring’s own ship.
