I 4 Giorgi. . L'architettura georgiana prende il nome dai quattro monarchi inglesi, tutti di nome George, che si sono succeduti dal 1720 al 1840. Durante questo periodo vennero costruiti interi quartieri di mattoni tutti uguali, ordinati e proporzionati.. finché qualcuno, all'inzio del 900, iniziò a colorare con i colori più disparati le porte di queste case, dando agli edifici maggiore individualismo. Alcuni dicono che i colori venivano usati per tenere lontani gli spiriti.. altri attribuiscono l invenzione a George Moore e Oliver St. John Gogarty, due scrittori vicini di casa, che tornando tutte le notti a casa ubriachi, confondevano spesso la porta d'ingresso, entrando l'uno nella casa dell'altro.. e così, per risolvere il problema, decisero di renderele riconoscibili colorandole con colori diversi. . . #dublin #ireland #ig_dublin #houses #dublinhouse #bricks #houseswithpersonality #personality #door #doors #porte #colors #colorful #mattoni #case #creatività #tutteuguali #tuttediverse #dettagli #georgian #georgianarchitecture #architecture #merrionsquare #merrion #legends #spirits #details #entrance #folk #justeat at Merrion Square

Friday, 15/02, 5pm and 8pm Saturday, 16/02, 2pm and 5pm Sunday, 17/02, 2pm Booking: link in bio Ireland!

OSCAR WILDE (monumento dublinese) Abbarbicato sulla natia roccia, ammicchi al mondo con il raffinato sguardo. I colori accesi del dandismo perduto. Dove sono le catene che han soffocato l’onesto genio? Tu, cantore delle altrui vanità, fosti la vittima sacrificale della coscienza odiosa che uccidesti nell’ultima, mirabile lettera. Le tue lacrime salvezza portarono al tuo cuore, ad Alfred e a quel tristo mondo che ancora miete ingiuste sofferenze? #oscarwilde #oscarwildememorial #monument #monumento #oscarwildemonument #dublin #dublino #instadublin #igersdublin #ig_dublin #merrionsquare #poesia #poesiaitaliana #poesiacontemporanea #endecasillabi #versi #parole #words #poesie #poésie #poesía #poet #poeta #instapoet #instapoeta #instapoetry #instapoesia #poetry #poetrycommunity #poetryisnotdead at Oscar Wilde Memorial
