Thank you dear Phil. The Haarlem station is the one with most Jugendstil/Art Nouveau features. The Amsterdam Central Station also has some of them.

You confuse Art Nouveau/Jugendstil with Art Deco. At the bottom of the Wikipedia page you will find a link towards Art Deco!!! If I remember it correctly you also had a book in your bookcase on Art Deco...
Art Deco is not as romantic as Art Nouveau/Jugendstil. It is much more functional!

Thanks very much dear Liz. You looked at the photo really well and you are right: the engines' smoke created the nice frame!!! :)))

Dear Phil: I did not want to correct you in the wrong sense of the word, but I trust you will understand how I meant it. What I mean(t) to do was and is: share my knowledge and admiration for a.o. art with other people by offering both to them via the texts underneath my (or their) photos. Kind regards, Anna.
