Timeless (10) ...On the way... Pe drum ...( Noaptea muzeelor/ Nuit européenne des musées * | European Night of Museums | 16 Mai 2015)
This is how I finished my previous post: "The night is on the way to have more surprises at every corner... at this cultural and historical, european event..."
Indeed, the night at the museums, as a free event, it becomes quite popular, year after year, and so I could saw and felt, same time, that it has a huge impact over the youth and, to be fair, actually to the people of all ages, various ages and typologies, with the huge desire of openly receive socio-cultural informations, to update their knowledge through the exhibitions or galleries involved ...
From Did you know Category/ Știați că*:
The peony * is a flowering plant in the genus Paeonia, the only genus in the family Paeoniaceae. They are native to Asia, Southern Europe and Western North America. Boundaries between species are not clear and estimates of the number of species range from 25 to 40.
Name
The peony is named after Paeon (also spelled Paean), a student of Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine and healing. Asclepius became jealous of his pupil; Zeus saved Paeon from the wrath of Asclepius by turning him into the peony flower.
The family name "Paeoniaceae" was first used by Friedrich K.L. Rudolphi in 1830, following a suggestion by Friedrich Gottlieb Bartling that same year. The family had been given other names a few years earlier.

So...to continue our way, in the night, celebrating the museums, through the special places open to visit, we came from the Lipscani, from the library to the "Romanian Design Week"...at Hanul Gabroveni.

"Gabroveni Inn*: Built in 1739 on a land plot belonging to the former Voivodal Court (which was much larger than the present-day ruins of the Old Court—Romanian: Curtea Veche—show), the inn belonged to the "Inner Town" (Romanian: Târgul Dinlǎuntru), the inside section of Bucharest's Fortress. The inn was raised by Prince Constantin Mavrocordat, who decided to have a bezesten (the word is Turkish, meaning "large, square building, hosting shops all around, like in marketplaces"). These shops could only be rented by foreign merchants during the period they stayed in Bucharest doing business.
The inn was also known during the 18th century as Hanul Bezesten ("Bezesten Inn"), because it resembles a Turkish bezesten, boasting large shades covering almost the whole street on the sides. Merchants from the famous crafts town of Gabrovo used to lodge at the inn when selling their products in the city. The inn was named after these merchants, as was the street on which it is located, a name that has survived into the 21st century."

"I hope you'll not make a funny face,
When I'll show you a joyful place...
Of modern pieces of arts,
of many inner and hidden thoughts,
of so strange and, also, pretty views of lives
brought to surface and presented in bright lights!
Lots of items, things, details and aspects...
from the enlightened and sunny skillful minds,
The art seen as a "life parade", in these nights,
who are meant to open the people's hearts....
So, I hope you'll not make a funny face,
When I'll show you this joyful place..."

un film meditativ, despre viata, despre relația dintre doi oameni ..
O poveste frumoasă de viață într-o notă pozitivă ...
O poveste frumoasă de viață într-o notă pozitivă ...
And now, a movie proposal for this week...
One movie for meditation, about life, about the relationship between two people..
A lovely story of life in a positive note...
..."You'll never know what tomorrow it will bring"...
... "Nu vei ști niciodată ce va aduce ziua de mâine" ...
..." It's never too late to open your heart..."
... "Niciodată nu e prea târziu pentru a-ti deschide inima ..."
..."it's never too late to change your life..."
... "nu e niciodată prea târziu pentru a-ti schimba viața..."
..."It's never too late to take a chance..."
... "Niciodată nu e prea târziu să iti acorzi o șansă ..."*
*Excerpts from the trailer, above.
"Last Chance Harvey is a 2008 British-American romantic drama film written and directed by Joel Hopkins. The screenplay focuses on two lonely people who tentatively forge a relationship over the course of three days. Dustin Hoffman plays an American composer who loses his job and his position of father of the bride in the course of a single day overseas while Emma Thompson plays an airport worker with a jaundiced view of relationships." Click to read more infos on Wikipedia*
..."With his job on the line, Harvey travels to London for his daughter’s wedding, where in a chance encounter at the airport he meets Emma Thompson’s Kate, who works there for the Office of National Statistics, and together, over the course of 24 hours, they inch their way towards falling in love. The story’s simplicity, however, is belied by the complexities that go with being two older people, struggling against their fear of a new, potentially profound, relationship."

Gladly shared with:
Stay positive, today, tomorrow and always!
Rămâi pozitiv, astăzi, mâine și întotdeauna!
So, very thankful, each and every day, to be inspired...All is well...
Your black and white photo has a dream-like quality. Wonderful what a difference removing the colour makes.
RăspundețiȘtergereThank you for appreciation and I think the same... that the image changed a bit...
Ștergeremi-a placut mult plimbarea alaturi de tine, cât de multe lucruri interesante am vazut! mi-ar fi placut in mod special sa fiu acolo langa razboiul de tesut! wow... superbe mostre!
RăspundețiȘtergereDraga mea, pentru ca astazi s-a dat startul intr-o noua luna - La multi ani tuturor copiilor dar si tuturor adultilor care undeva într-un colt al sufletului, pastreaza copilul ce au fost odata, stiind înca sa se bucure de maruntisurile cotidiene, asa cum doar copiii stiu sa o faca! Pupici ♥
Cu mult drag, La multi ani, asemenea si cu multe bucurii, mici si mari, la un loc! Asa e, trebuie, sa ne bucuram ca niste copii, pentru a putea sa ne reincarcam bateriile... Mare adevar!
ȘtergereMa bucur, asemenea ca plimbarea, pe care o postez cu ceva intarziere si "mici, mari poticniri tehnice" a fost placuta, vizual!
Toate bune pentru acest inceput de saptamana, intr-o zi de dubla sarbatoare! Pupici cu drag!
Wonderful post. I enjoyed seeing all the exhibits and images. The sky shots with the birds are awesome. Love the peonies. Thanks for sharing your visit. Enjoy your Monday and the week ahead!
RăspundețiȘtergereHello Alexa, stopping by to say thank you for visit and for the nice comment..
ȘtergereAm vazut filmul L.C.H.! :) Mi-a placut foarte mult si imi plac actorii din acest film.
RăspundețiȘtergereFrumoasa plimbare, o saptamana cat mai placuta iti doresc!
RăspundețiȘtergereJe suis contente de voir que les Européens ont de plus en plus d'événements culturels communs: la nuit des musées en fait partie!
RăspundețiȘtergereLa pivoine est une fleur magnifique, dans ma région elle s'appelle aussi "rose de la Pentecôte" parce qu'elle fleurit en général à cette époque!
Très belles photos et textes très riches , bravo de partager avec nous toutes ces recherches!
:) am revenit sa iti spun ca am vazut filmul pe care l-ai recomandat - multumesc! Mi-am sters câteva lacrimi din coltul ochilor, am oftat si... am sperat pentru binele relatiei lui Harvey si Kate ☺ Imi plac ambii actori atât Dustin Hoffman, cât si Emma Thompson, asa ca vreau sa spun, si daca filmul nu ar fi fost o romanta draguta, probabil ca tot mi-ar fi placut, pentru ca cei doi sunt nascuti sa fie actori, ei stiu sa intre in pielea orcarui personaj, facându-l sa para real. Impresionanta povestea celor doi, cunosc atât de multe persoane in situatia lor si ce frumos ar fi daca fiecare si-ar folosi sansa :) sansa de a fi fericiti alaturi de persoana potrivita.
RăspundețiȘtergereMultumesc inca o data pentru recomandare! pup :-*
