Glass Sun Shines Over Berkeley Square

Glass Sun Shines Over Berkeley Square and it did. What an amazing piece of artwork. Berkeley Square is a posh area and really lovely too but I thing the The Sun should have been erected in a more public place such as the nearby Green Park.

It would have been more ideal. The burst of colours in the midst of greenery of Green Park woukd have been more appopriate for this Dale Chihuly’s stunning glass sculpture.

Be that as it may, we did have fun and I supposed it was an ideal situation for us who wanted to photograh this artwork to death as there were not much people about congregating in front of it.

The surrounding area was beautiful. Apparently it was so posh that sale of residential buildings are few and far between and in cases that one is available, the market value is higher that its equivalent even in other up-market places.

Dale Chihuly – Glass Scuptor

The very talented and much sought after American artist, Dale Chihuly, has unveiled the Sun at Berkeley Square in London.  Certainly beautiful enough to brighten a cold dready morning.

Londoners have seen another work by Dale Chihuly at the V&A Rotunda in the form of a chandelier.
