Phespirit goes to Germany
Berlin     July 2007


FOOTWORK

One of the world's finest collections of 13th to 18th century European art is exhibited at the Gemäldegalerie in Berlin.

'Der Fuß des Künstlers' by Adolph Menzel, 1876, isn't exhibited at the Gemäldegalerie but is sufficiently fine for display among the later works at the Alte Nationalgalerie.

Berlin, Germany: Footwork.

FOOTPRINTS

Strandbad Wannsee is an open-air lido that boasts one of the largest inland beaches in Europe. It stretches along the southeastern side of Großer Wannsee, a 2.7km² lake on the Rivel Havel, in southwestern Berlin.

Stinging winds had driven away most of the sun worshippers when Phespirit arrived, but the evidence of their passing remained.

Berlin, Germany: Footprints.

FOOTBALL

If Phespirit had been in the Olympiastadion just one year, 17 days and 14 hours earlier he would've been watching the Italians beat France in the 2006 World Cup final. Almost seventy years before that, he would've been watching Italy defeat Austria in the summer Olympic Games football final of 1936 .....

Timing is everything.

Berlin, Germany: Football.
