Palais Bahia

The Palais Bahia, or Palace of the Favorite, was built by two powerful grand viziers at the end of the 19th century. This will be a relatively short gallery featuring mainly the elaborate ceilings, which were different in every apartment we visited.

Not a ceiling, but close to it ;-).

One of several ceilings in the palace posted earlier:

Nikon D810 ,Nikkor AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED
1/250s f/8.0 at 38.0mm iso6400 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

I wonder if the apprentices had to qualify on the straight bit before being allowed onto the curves?!
