pyramide tribute




Weekly column on sightseeing in the Netherlands. Today, a piece on the Pyramid of Austerlitz, built in 1804 as a tribute to Napoleon Bonaparte. The article is by Gidi Heesakkers, she writes: To avoid bored visitors walking out immediately, the area around the pyramid is decorated like an endless fairground. This made me want to draw a deserted area, but when finishing the tower I thought it looked a bit like a rocket taking off. Adding the little planes would complete that image.
