This is a topic for beautiful things, beautiful art.
Your submissions can be anything as long as they are
a) beautiful.
b) not a photo of a human being. This isn't just a 'fit guys/girls' topic.
c) a high-resolution image of whatever it is. No small, grainy images please.
(pro-tip: change the size setting on Google Image search to 'large')
This is a topic for sublime art. It can be any format, including painting, sculpture, architecture, photography, pottery or any other artistic form. But we don't just want something a 14-year-old has posted on DeviantArt. Truly great works please. And I'd rather not have photos of beautiful bits of nature, this is a topic for things that have been crafted by the hand of man.
The idea is that maybe someone on the forum will see something that touches their life in a meaningful way, that resonates with them, and that they would never otherwise have seen.
Topic is named after OGEE, Nick Guest's magazine of beautiful art in Hollinghurt's The Line of Beauty.
My first contributions:
(photo from 1900)
Neuschwanstein Castle, Germany, built in 1869.
'The Kiss' (1907) by Gustav Klimt (1862 - 1918)
'View of Delft' (1660 - 1661) by Johannes Vermeer (1632 - 1675)
De La Warr Pavilion (1935), Bexhill, designed by Erich Mendelsohn and Serge Chermayeff.
The Adoration of the Trinity (1511) by Albrecht Dürer (1471 - 1528)
Your turn, show us what you think is beautiful.
Edit: should have put 'in b4 someone hilariously posts a photo of Nemesis/Blue Fire/Mamba' *yawn*
