The Rose Cottage 2 (2008)

This is a second study of "The Rose Cottage." It was formerly the pathology building of the Louisiana Central State Hospital Building. It now houses a small museum and memorial to the thousands of patients who lived and died at the hospital. It will be auctioned off at a fund raiser for residents in March of next year.

This one is even more beautiful than the first. The shadows of the trees makes it so special!

This is a splendid and rather dignified building. More like a mansion than a cottage. I love the way you've played with the shadows that contrast with the bright sunlight splashed on the walls. Love it. A propos, I'm sending you a french letter by email. Take care!
