This pic shows the magnificent West Hall at UC which is used mostly as a lecture hall and for writing the dreaded exams. It is a fabulous space with much carving (there are 267 carved roundels along the top of the oak panelling showing faces, animals, monsters & geometric designs), stained glass, and just the scale of the place. I had never been in here before and I was awestruck!
Everything in this place is stunning!!!
ReplyDeleteIt looks a location of a movie, it's so beautiful and well preserved.
Beautiful shot!
Lots to look at and study when a lecture gets boring...not that that ever happens. :)
ReplyDeleteThis i have to see with my own eyes!
ReplyDeletePerfect!!
This is lovely. I imagine the students, who are quaking over the exams they are taking, barely notice how fine the hall is.
ReplyDeleteMust be an amazing place.
ReplyDeleteI can see why you were awestruck. It's gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteUniversities seem to take a perverse delight in holding exams in the loveliest surroundings. Ours does the same: http://occasionalscotland.blogspot.com/2010/05/exam-seasonto-end.html
