Under the Broken Chair

Geneva, Switzerland

The Broken Chair is a monumental sculpture in wood by the Swiss artist Daniel Berset, constructed by the carpenter Louis Genève. It is constructed of 5.5 tons of wood and is 12 metres (39 feet) high.
It depicts a giant chair with a broken leg and stands across the street from the Palace of Nations, in Geneva. It is standing in front of the United Nations HQ in Geneva.
It symbolises opposition to land mines and cluster bombs, and acts as a reminder to politicians and others visiting. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broken_Chair

Most of these panoramas were made by taking 4 shots around (1 shot every 90 degrees) plus one shot for the Nadir (ground). I use PTGui and Pano2VR to stitch and mount them. full exif
