Image title | Stone stairway and arch at Bishop's Castle, a most eclectic art installation 9,000 feet high in the mountains of southern Colorado, up a winding road from San Isabel in San Isabel National Forest. (Its mailing address is Rye, farther away.) The creation of Jim and Phoebe Bishop, it began in the late 1970s as a simple mountain cabin and grew like topsy as whimsical inspirations came to the couple. Writes Jim Bishop about himself on the castle Web site: "He had apprenticed and then mastered with his father in the family's Bishop Ornamental Iron shop, welding and scroll bending and learning how things fit together for most of his life. Jim did everything -- hauling rock from the state highway ditches, felling timber and then milling it into lumber, building railroad ties into forms for his arches, (he's used the same form over and over), building scaffolding as he went. He hand dug holes up to 12 feet deep for the foundations, mixed all his own mortar, carried it, usually up, to wherever he was working, created and rigged complex systems of pulleys and come-alongs to hoist such things as tree trunks for the floor supports, and stone by stone his dreams were being made manifest. Jim handles each and every stone in the castle on average of SIX TIMES!!! before it rests in its final configuration in this massive re-organizing of the scattered granite in the Rocky Mountains into the form of the Bishop Castle." |
