Brzeg castle, a photo from Opolskie, West

Photographer's Note

The Brzeg Castle is a historical Renaissance residence in Poland, now the Museum of the Silesian Piast Dynasty. It is located in Brzeg in the southwestern part of Poland, about 50km from Wroclaw.
The history of the monument dates back to the 1st half of the 13th century.
It was originally a Gothic castle. From 1311 to 1675 it was the residence of the Piast dynasty. The appearance of the castle changed five times during the Middle Ages. The residence was then completely rebuilt and became one of the the most beautiful Renaissance palaces in Europe.
After the Second World War it was turned into the museum. I the rooms you can see a collection of Silesian art from the period 15th to 18th century. There are sculptures, old coins, several altars, ceremonial clothing and armour, and also tombs of the rulers in castle crypts.

In my photo the courtyard and cloisters of the castle.
In WS: the gate building of the castle.

Bonjour, cher Ryszard,
Voilà une visite qui se révèle intéressante tant au point du contenu que du contenant.
La beauté architecturale de style renaissance reste remarquable avec ses balcons filants à colonnes.
Merci pour ces présentations toujours intéressantes.
Amitiés.
Philippe

cześc Ryszard, Czemu ta piekna fasada jest jako Workshop? Widzę, że to była wycieczka po zamkach dolnosląśkich. Tez odbyłm taka wycieczkę. Zamek w Brzego fantastyczny. I ciekawy tez kosciół niedaleko.
Piekny dziedziniec.

Pozdrawiam MAłgorzata

Hello Ryszard,
A castle with a long history and much to appreciate in the way of the architecture and the museum exhibits. I like the angle of view looking toward the angle between the walls. The few people dotted about enliven the scene and give scale. Agreeable lights and colours and good sharpness.

Hello Ryszard,
The WS gives us a great view of the fantastic reliefs and ornaments of the façade, but this is also a good composition. I like that we see two walls of the building and the courtyard forming a triangle in the lower part. The café adds colours and enlivens the view.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Ryszard,

This is a fine capture of the interior courtyard, clearly showing the many storeys and balconies. It seems more like a palace than a castle. The cafe and strolling figures are useful for both atmosphere and scale.
I love the sharp details of the main gate in you w/s.
Well done.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Ryszard
Beautiful classic architecture and less colour but I love the layout with good distribution of lines which makes the compo more stronger. That marriage of bright warm colour of the roofing lends this a great lift and the mingling people is the icing on the cake. Great capture.
Best regards

Ciao Ryszard
bella serie di archi e balaustre, molto utili per muoversi dai vari ambienti senza il rischio di bagnarsi o prendere troppo sole.
Bellissimo l'arco di ingresso/uscita.
Saluti
Carlo

Czesc Ryszard,
musze koniecznie wybrac sie kiedys do Brzegu.
Piekne kruzganki. Przypomina Wawel albo Baranow oczywiscie w tym samym stylu.
Pogoda troche niedopisala ale swietnie sobie z tym poradziles i koncowy efekt jest znakomity.
Przyjemna asymetryczna kompozycja.
Pozdrawiam serdecznie,
M

Hi Ryszard
who doesn't appreciate a castle photo :)
now this may not be the classic castle style, but historic and interesting non the less. This would be a great museum to walk through, even just for the castle itself in its construction. The car looks so small in the frame, goes to show how large and dominant this building is. sweet shot. cheers
