I love this metal-covered crown on James Salmon and John Gaff Gillespie's rather spectacular Glasgow Style 1899 British Linen Bank building at Govan Cross in Glasgow.

The ornate cupola and roof lantern of the former John Black and Sons Warehouse on Gordon Street in central Glasgow. Designed by Boucher and Cousland in 1858, it was altered by J.J. Burnet in the late 1890s and early 1900s.

The paintings of this #baroque #cupola in #Rome pass over the frieze in an attempt to achieve more realism, as if the figures where really on a different plane compared to the building surfaces. #church #architecture #ornaments.

This Is My Glasgow Dec 4

Looking up a stairwell in the former Old Cowcaddens Church in Glasgow. Designed by Campbell Douglas and Sellars, it was built in 1872. A stained glass window by John Clark was added below the original glass cupola above these stairs when it was converted into the National Piping Centre by McGurn, Logan, Duncan and Opfer in the 1990s.
