Arch Detail - Vientiane


This detail shot of the Arch of Victory also points out another detail I noticed a lot which was the use of colored light bulbs, rather than a lot of neon, or the more modern kind of signs that we currently see in the US.

I can only concur with Phil.

Another insightful abstraction. The architecture here was conceived to impress and express. Yet crude strings of lights and lack of funds for maintenance add a layer of incongruity and truth.
