#WindowsOnWednesday Pennzoil Place: A 115-ft glass pyramid atrium & a pioneering trapezoidal design formed by 2 #skyscrapers (with unique 45° sloped roofs) meeting. #Abstractia #Triangles #ECK #Architecture #UrbanGaze #StreetPhotography #Photography #Photographers #ClassicMono #BWPhotography
A vertical, high contrast, monochrome BW photo of the dramatic, striking glass atrium interior of Pennzoil Place in downtown Houston, designed by the renowned architect Philip Johnson and completed in 1975. The architectural style is reportedly "a quintessential example of Late Modernism shifting into Postmodernism."

Google also tells me: "The architecture proudly exhibits its structural skeleton. Instead of hiding the load-bearing elements, the intricate network of steel space-frame trusses and tubular beams is left fully exposed to double as the primary visual and decorative ornament.

A defining signature of this specific architecture is its sloped glass canopy. The dramatic, angled glass roof creates a soaring, cathedral-like atrium space that bridges the gap between the street-level plaza and the towering skyscrapers above."

Artist: Ohara Koson Title: Swan and Reeds Date: 1928 Medium: Color woodblock print Credit Line: Bruce Goff Archive, gift of Shin'enkan, Inc.
The artwork features two swans swimming in dark, reflective water against a solid black background, showcasing Koson’s superb ability to combine traditional subject matter with modern design sensibilities.

The composition centers on two large, pristine white swans swimming in tandem toward the right. The foreground swan glides lower in the water, curving its long, graceful neck downward as it glances slightly toward the viewer with a dark, round eye. Its companion swims just behind and above it, craning its neck high and upright. Both birds are rendered in crisp cream-white tones, with their plumage defined by delicate, molded karazuri (embossing) and fine linework that gives texture to their overlapping wing feathers. Their orange-red beaks stand out as vibrant pops of color against the pale plumage, with the upper swan displaying a distinct black basal knob above its bill.

Emerging from the left edge of the frame is a dense cluster of slender, sharp reeds or bamboo-like leaves. These plants are rendered in a muted, dusky olive-green wash, their angular, blade-like silhouettes cutting diagonally across the black void and providing an elegant organic frame for the avian subjects.

Beneath the swans, the water's surface is depicted through a series of bold, horizontal white ripples that dissolve into rhythmic, undulating wavy patterns. These stylized ripples suggest the distorted, shimmering reflections of the birds' long white necks cast downward into the dark depths.

The lighting is entirely abstract and graphic, relying on the dramatic contrast between the brilliant whites of the swans, the deep midnight-black background, and the muted green of the reeds to create a powerful sense of depth and focus. In the bottom left corner, the piece is signed with Koson's artist name Shoson (祥邨) in white calligraphic characters, accompanied by his round, red artist seal. The entire print exudes a quiet, nocturnal elegance and a profound, meditative stillness.

Kokubun-ji temple, Okayama, Japan国分寺 岡山. Photography by Shaly on Photohito
A monumental, luminous full moon dominates the upper-right quadrant of the canvas. Rendered with spectacular, crisp clarity, the lunar surface reveals its intricate, cratered topography, featuring delicate patterns of pale silver highlands and dark, velvety gray volcanic plains (maria). The moon acts as a powerful, brilliant beacon of cosmic light, casting a soft, ambient charcoal-gray glow across the surrounding night sky. This celestial sphere infuses the composition with a deep sense of megetsu (the appreciation of the full harvest moon), a poetic motif deeply woven into traditional Japanese literature and classical ink wash paintings.

Juxtaposed against this luminous orb is the pitch-black, razor-sharp silhouette of the temple's multi-tiered pagoda, slicing vertically through the left and lower-middle registers. The image masterfully frames the upper three stories of the structure, highlighting the elegant, sweeping curves of the flared roofs. Tiny, delicate silhouettes of wind bells (fūrin) can be seen dangling from the upturned tips of the eaves, designed to ward off evil spirits. Piercing the night sky at the absolute apex of the primary roof is the sōrin—the magnificent, ringed bronze finial that acts as a conceptual axis connecting the earthly sanctuary to the heavenly void above.

The lower register and background framing rely on a minimalist, low-key aesthetic to emphasize the composition's profound silence. The baseline of the pagoda is anchored in a dark, organic mass of silhouetted trees and dense foliage clothing the hill below, stripping away any modern distractions or human presence.

Cranes, Pines, and Bamboo by Ogata Korin, early 18th century, Japan
the monumental red-crowned crane (tanchōzuru) spans the central and right panels. Captured in a highly dramatic, kinetic posture, the crane arches its back into a dark, volumetric oval before extending its long, serpentine neck sharply downward and to the right, its long beak agape as if letting out a cry or pecking at the earth. Kōrin renders the bird’s main plumage with a sequence of scalloped, dark-grey and charcoal ink washes that create a rich, textural volume, contrasting sharply with the crisp white curve of its neck. Its powerful legs are executed with sharp, calligraphic precision, bent in mid-stride with textured, splayed claws anchoring it to the terrain. A brilliant patch of vermilion accents the side of its head, injecting an electric point of color that immediately draws the viewer's eye.

Framing this dramatic avian performance are highly stylized botanical elements that represent the traditional "Three Friends of Winter" motif. On the left panel rise thick, structural stalks of green bamboo (take), their segments articulated with rhythmic horizontal brush bands. Delicate morning-glory or broad-leafed vines climb up the stalks, while lower clusters of small yellow chrysanthemums sprout from the base. On the right, a rocky, moss-covered outcrop is rendered with a mix of dry-brush line work and soft green washes, speckled with dark ink dots (tenju) to represent moss and lichen. Small white wildflowers peek out from behind the stone, adding a delicate graphic softness to the rugged terrain.

The lower margin is grounded by a broad, horizontal band of layered green and earthy washes that define a rolling shoreline or mossy bank, split by thin, vertical tufts of dried marsh grass on the right.

© artist Koji Mizutani, At Yoshino, Japan, 2003
A panoramic view titled At Yoshino, Japan. The composition captures the legendary, mist-shrouded slopes of Mount Yoshino (Yoshino-yama) in Nara Prefecture—historically celebrated as Japan's premier site for wild cherry blossoms (sakura). Mizutani masterfully structures the scene across a wide horizontal format divided by four faint vertical panel lines, intentionally evoking the classical heritage of traditional Japanese folding screens (byōbu). 
The lower margin and right foreground of the painting are enveloped by massive, cloud-like clusters of cherry blossoms in full bloom. In the lower-left corner, a dense canopy of pale, near-white blossoms flares with intense, luminous brightness, catching a powerful ray of natural light that makes the individual petals seem to glow from within. This brilliant cluster smoothly transitions across the lower edge into a sea of soft, bubblegum-pink and lavender-toned cherry trees. On the far right, the dark, elegant silhouettes of gnarled branches slice upward through a towering wall of pink blossoms, providing a powerful graphic frame that anchors the sprawling horizon.

Rising majestically behind this floral foreground are the rolling, undulating waves of the Yoshino mountain range. The steep valleys and ridges are densely carpeted with a rich hierarchy of dark, velvety evergreen pines and cedar trees, creating intense, deep green pockets of shadow that cut contrasting pathways through the landscape. Nestled within these dramatic folds of the earth are thousands of wild, pale pink cherry trees that blanket the mountainside like an ethereal morning mist, guiding the viewer's eye deep into the sweeping background.

Crowning the entire composition is a vast, minimalist sky rendered in a solid, luminous golden-yellow hue that evokes the classic gold-leaf backgrounds of Rimpa school paintings. This warm, radiant sky provides a dramatic, clean counterweight to the complex, hyper-detailed textures of the forested slopes below.
