Love the constellation mosaics in the the small park area in Kelvingrove Square in Glasgow. Some are a little worse for wear, but they still bring a splash of colour to it.

At this time, it marked the western end of Sauchiehall Steet, and it was the first building on the section which now runs from here to the junction with Argyle Street outside Kelvingrove Art Gallery.

This inscription is directly above two of Glasgow's best-loved Atlas figures, a pair of giant stone men which guard the building's entrance, leading local kids to believe the statues were named Stewart and McDonald.

The back view of a long sleeved long skirted dress in a vibrant pattern of purple waves and yellow flashes. Ruffles and pleats add to the effect of the textile
A partial view of the bodice of the 1830s purple patterned dress showing gathering centre front and a shawl style collar
Only in surviving garments can we appreciate the full technicolour of c19th dye experiments. This late #1830s mohair dress used a pioneering pigment innovation called cudbear developed in Leith, Scotland, resulting in this wildly colourful pattern @NtlMuseumsScot #kelvingrove #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

I don't think I'll ever tire of this view of the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in the West End of Glasgow, with the tip of the University tower just sneaking into the mix.

I love this little owl which stands guard on the handrails of one of the staircases in Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow. It always reminds me of Bubo from the 1981 film the Clash of the Titans.

I love this gushet tenement on Argyle Street in the west of Glasgow. Built in 1876, it's got very elegant, but minimalist lines to it.

As it’s Burns Night, just a reminder of what a wild haggis looks like. This rare example is displayed in the Kelvingrove Museum in Glasgow.

Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow. The image shows a very large red stone building topped off with pinnacles and rounded towers. It is facing diagonally to the right. In the foreground a path leads across grass towards the building. The sky is blue.
Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow. A world class museum in a truly magnificent building that has held a special place in the hearts of generations of Glaswegians since it first opened its doors in 1901. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...

Minerva is said to have been modelled on the wife of David Bell, the merchant who commissioned the building and its neighbouring tenement.

One of the Kelvingrove’s most famous works: ‘Christ of St John of the Cross’ by Salvador Dali, 1951. It was bought from the artist in 1952, a purchase which was controversial at the time.

Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, Glasgow.
Outside of India, probably the most ornate museum I've ever seen.

The roof lantern on James Sellars' 1879 Greek Revival style former church on Derby Street in the Kelvingrove area of Glasgow. Its design was inspired by the Choragic Monument of Lysicrates, which was erected in Athens in 335 BCE.
