Wednesday Window – pt 8

A delightful stroll through Amsterdam’s backstreets leads to a captivating image of a poster from the Amsterdam Marionette Theater.

This week, I am taking you back on a walk through the lovely city of Amsterdam. As my wife and I sauntered through the city, crossing canals and following alleys, we found plenty an interesting sight.

As we walked through a small street, I captured this image…

Amsterdam on a String

My first impression of this sight was the extravagant use of red on the wall that helps frame the poster. But then I also noticed the reflection of the window across the poster, which makes for a nice bit of playful composition. So, yes, here’s my window for this Wednesday, mirrored across the intriguing puppet.

The poster is located on one of the walls of the Amsterdam Marionette Theater on the Nieuwe Ridderstraat side. The reflected windows are part of a school across the little square.

This is my contribution to this week’s Monday Window; I wholeheartedly encourage you to check out the other posts linked to this cool theme!
