Amazonas Theater, a photo from Amazonas, North

Photographer's Note

The Amazonas Theater, inaugurated in 1896, is the most significant expression of the wealth of Manaus during the rubber cycle. With Renaissance style, it became one of the most famous monuments of Brazil at that time and, therefore, the most prominent symbol of Manaus. The Amazonian Philharmonic Orchestra regularly rehearses and presents inside the theater.

Hello Alexandre,
Excellent photo of this grand theatre building, which you captured from a very good angle. It has many appealing architectural features, the golden dome being the most interesting. I like the contrast of the pastel colours with the dark blue sky and clouds.

Hello Alexandre,
I know this famous institution more from literature than from photos, so this is an interesting picture. It still looks good after so many years, but it's probably not the same kind of persons that make up the audiences these days, when the rich rubber barons are gone. It's shot from a nice angle which creates some depth and I always appreciate when some people are included in this kind of photo.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Alexandre,

A good angled pov on this famous theatre, with excellent color, sharpness and saturation. I like the upward pov and the ornate white duo of statues. The people provide scale. Tfs!

Dobar dan.
Interesantan i lep pogled, dobar tekst ...
Lepo pokazana arhitektura, dobar kontrast i perspektiva, lepe boje, lepo uhvacen trenutak sa oblacima koji dolaze sa kisom. Lepa fasada i detalji, lepa kupola.
Zelim vam lep dana, sve najbolje za vikend, srecno.
Paja.

Ola Alexandre,
Most magnificent theatre facade with its pink and white prevailing tones. The dome perfectly shown from the distant point taken from.
Beautiful architecture's design, always thought a different view of Manaus, nicely surprised.
Bom fim de semana,
Ike

Bonjour, cher Alexandre,
C'est curieux de constater le contraste entre ce superbe йdifice abritant le Temple de la musique et l'immeuble situй а proximitй, quelle diffйrence !
Je voudrais bien йcouter un concert au sein de cet йdifice.
Amitiйs.

Bonjour Alexandre,

J'aime beaucoup cette contre plongйe. Elle donne une belle ampleur а ce trиs beau thйвtre. En plus, le ciel se donnait en spectacle pour offrir de trиs beaux effets dramatiques.

Amicalement

Ciao Alex,what a beautiful example of architechture "fin de siecle" and how is well preserved,not like the buildings in ruin on the left. A great POV to show us this beauty completely,a most important place in the Manaus history! Have a nice weekend and thanks,Luciano

Hola Alexandre
El edificio es grande y muy bonito y me imagino que su interior es esplйndido. Yo he visto y fotografiado varios teatros, pero no tan grandes como este.

Saludos

Hi Alexandre,
very attractive architecture. I would never guess looking at this picture its location.
Challenging light but the resulting colors are quite attractive for the eye.
Thanks for sharing it,

Beau dimanche

adramad (54950) 2018-01-07 9:02

Hola Alexandre.
Sin duda este hermoso edificio es todo un simbolo para la ciudad, en realidad sorprende la construccion de una obra tan costosa en una ciudad, tan aislada ya en la selva, sobre todo cuando fue construido, pero en aquel entonces la riqueza tenia muchas riquezas con el caucho.
Excelente POV, con muy buena iluminaciуn, colorido y nitidez para disfrutar los detalles.
Muy buen trabajo. Me gusta
Disfruta un feliz Domingo.
Saludos muy cordiales.
Luis.

Hi Alexandre,

The presence of the peopl has an effect of scale. The point of view is showing a double perspective of the architectur eof the theater. There is a good contrast between the colors of the picture. Have a nice day.

Ciao Alexandre, great view of fantastic theather, excellent perspective, fine details and wonderful colors, very well done, my friend, ciao Silvio

Royaldevon (51878) 2018-01-09 7:24

Hello Alexandre,

This is a splendid building of a very classical style, contrasting significantly with the modern skyscraper behind it.
I like how you have shown the beauty of its facade, its depth and the golden dome at its centre.
The pink, pastel colours, with white sculptural details, reminds me of pink jasperware produced by Josiah Wedgewood.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

alvaraalto (28920) 2018-01-09 13:23
