Scope:
Court Pharmacy building in Karlsruhe, Germany |
Reason:
A well-known and well-preserved Art Nouveau building by Hermann Billing. -- Ikar.us (talk) |
Comment I miss the ground floor with the pharmacy. Why is it cut off? Llez (talk) 05:34, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Because I don't own a sufficient wide-angle lens. --Ikar.us (talk) 09:13, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Try taking several picture and merge them into a panorama. If necessary, help is always at hand :-). Lycaon (talk) 13:35, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you, but the facades have a pronounced 3D structure. I can't imagine how a stitched image could look natural. --Ikar.us (talk) 23:50, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Shop-windows, pedestrians and parked bicycles aren't very relevant anyway. I took the image because in Works of Hermann Billing an art nouveau building was requested. --Ikar.us (talk) 09:44, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Question Why did you chose "Court pharmacy" as scope, if the ground floor with the Court Pharmacy is cut off? Wouldn't be "Buildings of Hermann Billing, Kaiserstr. 201 in Karlsruhe" or something like that better? --Llez (talk) 12:26, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- The building is known by its name. You may argue that the name should be in German then. The court pharmacy isn't in the ground floor, it's in history. There's no court since 1918. The pharmacist who rents the shop today has just kept the historic name. And the pharmacy does and did extend to the first floor. The low intermediate storey behind the arch windows is the place where the drugs were being made and are stored today.
What I really miss are the ornaments on the right side. I hope for a sunny sunday morning... --Ikar.us (talk) 12:57, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Hm, the golden cross is on this side, and should really be visible. --Ikar.us (talk) 17:04, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose Ikar.us himself has expressed some reservations regarding criterion 3. Moreover, I would say that a building is really worth its own scope if it is rather well-known by itself. This one hasn't an article on its own on any Wikipedia, unless I'm wrong (of course it isn't an absolute proof, but a WP article can help to attest the notoriety of a building). This one is simply listed in the de:WP and fr:WP articles about Hermann Billing. As said in a previous review, a set about the different styles of works by Hermann Billing could be interesting. For a single VI, if the scope was "Works of Hermann Billing", the chosen building should be Jugendstil preferably, but also quite notable, shouldn't it? --Myrabella (talk) 20:49, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
