"Ghost Frames" by cdx-foto. Daytime colour photo showing bare concrete window frames at the upper levels of ruined concrete beams. Some frames are near collapse and the beams of the structure create dramatic shadows against a blue sky.
"Ghost Frames". The glass may be long gone, but the frames endure. Captured at one of the most remarkable places I know.

G.W. Pabst, one of cinema’s greatest directors of the 20th century, was filming in France when the Nazis seized power. To escape the horrors of the new and unrecognizable Germany, he fled to Hollywood. But now, under the blinding California sun, the world-famous director suddenly looks like a nobody. Not even Greta Garbo, the Hollywood actress whom he made famous, can help him. When he receives word that his elderly mother is ill, he finds himself back in his homeland of Austria, which is now called Ostmark. Pabst, his wife, and his young son are suddenly confronted with the barbaric nature of the regime. So, when Joseph Goebbels—the minister of propaganda in Berlin—sees the potential for using the European film icon for his directorial genius and makes big promises to Pabst and his family, Pabst must consider Goebbels’s thinly veiled order. While Pabst still believes that he will be able to resist these advances, that he will not submit to any dictatorship other than art, he has already taken the first steps into a hopeless entanglement. An artist’s life, a pact with the devil, and the dangerous illusions of the silver screen. Kehlmann’s latest oeuvre explores the complicated relationships and distinctions between art and power, beauty and barbarism, cog and conspirator.

Lake, surrounded by mountains covered in snow. Small village of wooden houses on the shore of the lake with the first house positioned central in the picture and the rest of the village curving around the lake shore to the right. To the left some boats lying in the snow with the roof of a shed just visible. Although the scene appears to represent winter, it is in fact early spring

Information from museum website: A person walks behind a plough pulled by two oxen across a field beside a meandering river. White clouds and blue sky are reflected in the gleaming surface of the water. In one of the river’s bends, a cluster of birch trees with yellow foliage catches the light. Beyond the field, a dark forest rises against a bright yellow horizon.
Ester Almqvist, Autumn Ploughing on the Marshland (1911). Collection: Göteborg Museum of Art

View of Liebermann's garden against the gardener's cottage. In the foreground a small section of a path can be seen, but most of the painting is taken up by the perennials, blooming in red, yellow, white, and blue. Behind the flowers a small section of the cottage can be seen with the edge of the roof and one window with open shutters.

I've recently read "Vertigo: The Rise and Fall of Weimar Germany" by Harald Jähner.
