Poppies Anyone?

 Found this little gem in Luisenstrasse in Braunschweig.
 
Henry 🦁
 
 
I came from there and found him in front of a hotel.
The monument is dedicated to Hermann A Buchler.
 
In case you are interested and don´t speak German I recommend Deepl Translator

1842 Buchler went to London and founded Hermann Buchler London, a shop like Kakulas Bros in Perth, Northbridge.

Back in Braunschweig he instructed the Villa Buchler Petritorwall, the Zuckerraffinerie Braunschweig, and also the Chininfabrik Braunschweig Buchler & Co. (quinine).

Henry is quite proud and hence has to the left the letter "H" and right... , well "B".


This is for Sami´s COLOURFULWORLD Monday Murals, who might remember this monument (or rather not 😉).

It's a really lovely double door. Not sure what a shag door is, but the poppies are adorable. Henry looks good, too, Iris.

Well, a shag... is a little hut? I learned that from "The Simpsons"!, LOL...
Henry says thank you :-)

...I think that the poppies need a bit of fertilizer.

Beautiful poppies but we are not allowed to grow poppies here.

Can't remember that monument Iris, it's been a long time, and back then I didn't take as many photos as nowadays :)
Cute doors with poppies, mine are flowering at the moment.
Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Iris.

CJ Kennedy said...

Cool door. And now Henry between the H B looks like he's combined the logos of
Löwenbräu and the Hofbräuhaus in München. Clever Henry.

Nice signs to look at.

Divers and Sundry said...

What a wonderful way to "do" the door.

Iris Flavia said...

Jacky, hups. II must be careful with words, huh, comes from Scotland, as far as I know :-)

CJ, no, it stands for Hermann Buchler :-)
Naahh. München is Bavaria! ;-)
