Jean Dubuffet's sculpture on display at the CCB (Belém Cultural Center).
The west wing of the Jeronimus Monastery can be seen in the background.

An earthquake measuring 6.0 on the Richter scale shook Portugal for 8 seconds at 1.37am. It was quite scary! Fortunately the epicenter was located in the Atlantic Ocean 100kms off the coast.

impressionnante cette sculpture.
That's a serious earthquake. Take care!
I'm intrigued by the red cushions.
Beautiful photo and sculpture. 6.0 is strong one. I bet that was scary. So glad you a safe and sound.
Love the lines in this photo. And your header pic is brilliant!
Wonderful shot , i love both trees ! Earthquake are scary, fortunatly no damage !
6.0 that is quite a strong quake---good thing it was way under the ocean. We have them out here too.
Beautiful sculpture. MB
What are the red squares around the tree? Whatever they are, they add color to the shot.
Glad the quake didn't do damage.
An earthquake?! Oh no! Portugal has had enough of those. It would be so sad to see any of the beautiful things you show us shaken apart.
Wishing you a quiet night on solid ground.
Léia, BSQUARED and Jarart,
The red cushions are usually there for people to sit on this patio and enjoy the sun while reading a book or so, but a group of school children was playing with them and have positioned them that way (you can even see two of their backpacks near them).
I actually like Dubuffet and I REALLY like the angle you chose to show old and new.
Scary with the earthquake.
Those red stuf are pillows to sit on
LOL
It looks very relaxing there !!
Unique shot :-)
The composition of his picture is amazing. I like CCB very much and the Dubuffet is perfect there!
I like the composition of this photo and wow, I could sit there for a while:)
This is so nice. That Belem Cultural Center is a jewel in your community. Another great shot, too, JM!
6.0 on the Richter Scale is nothing to sneeze at! Yikes. Any damage in your area?
The sculpture looks great with the sky. Great angle you were able to take it from! Merry Christmas!
I have read about the earthquake... are buildings there quake-resistant?
That looks warm and inviting, especially compared to here. And Paris at the moment.
The earthquake must have been frightening. The worst earthquakes in US history were in this part of the country, not California, in 1811- 1812.
Amazing work. What a weird, intriguing sculpture.
Glad to hear you're ok, earthquakes are quite scary. I'd love to see the monastery but also like the contemporary in front of it.
Nice sculpture and nice photo. I like the bright red in the photo!!
(I hope this earthquake will not happen again!!!!)
