I visited the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library this weekend, and the interior is a study in contrasts. For more photos, see my previous post.

Love this photo! Beautiful contrasts!
Thanks! The Beinecke is a stunning building, I highly recommend a visit if you’re in the Connecticut area. x
I shall certainly keep that in mind if I ever visit Connecticut! It really is a gorgeous building.
Lovely picture and good take on theme. I am surprised they allowed photographs! or did we sneak it, like most of us do? lol.
Haha, been there and |(sneakily) got the t-shirt. Nope, these guys absolutely allow photos, I didn’t use a flash though, just in case it might harm the books.
Lovely and thanks for reply. as Arnie once said ‘I’ll be back’
Glad to hear it. See you soon!
