The architecturally magnificent building at the Binnenalster in Hamburg was built between the years 1886 and 1897 by various architects in the historicist style of the Neo-Renaissance.
The courtyard and patio have richly decorated façades in the style of the Italian and Northern German Renaissance and the central Hygieia fountain which was designed by the sculptor Joseph von Kramer in 1895/1896.
Hygieia is the goddess of health and hygiene in Greek mythology and the fountain was built in remembrance of the cholera epidemic in 1892.

Welcome! I am an Artist/Photographer based in Edinburgh, Scotland. My interests are wide and varied and this is reflected in my subject matter. I enjoy finding the beauty in even the most mundane subjects and the challenge of depicting the small details which are sometimes overlooked. Where possible, I research my subjects to give me a better understanding, which in turn allows me to adapt my approach to each one. I do not restrict myself to any particular style or media as this gives me the freedom to create my vision on each individual piece. I hope you enjoy browsing my galleries as much as I have enjoyed creating the works. Copyright © Yvonne Johnstone 2023. All rights reserved. All artwork in this gallery is original and uniquely...
