Art for Art’s Sake

For this CosPhoChal, Dale has challenged us to post photos depicting Art for Art’s Sake. I chose to continue on our tour of Hearst Castle by allowing you to see some of the art and sculptures we saw when we were there that day. I formatted the pictures into a slideshow, while I was blogging on this post, for enhanced view and entertainment. Relax and enjoy the show.

Numbers Game #26 – My 147 & the Word Hearst

Hearst Castle

and Ranch

Judy’s Numbers Game can bring about interesting results and insights from those who choose to participate. The challenge is alive, let’s get Blogging. In searching for the #147 and its variations the results that popped up all had the central focus around Hearst. Therefore, I selected a variety of photos around the Word Hearst and Hearst Castle.

As we approach Hearst Castle we see the sign informing us we are arriving at our desired destination.

State Historical Monument

The long and winding road up to the top where Hearst Castle is located.

Touring the outside grounds at Hearst San Simeon we see statues poolside …

And by the stairs leading upward …

Continuing our tour of the grounds we come upon the Hearst Ranch. William Randolph Hearst kept Fifty (50) species of herbivores on his ranch. They included around 126 Zebras plus bison, fallow deer, antelope, zebras, elk, camels, kangaroos, and giraffes.

We also could see the vastness of the Hearst Ranch where the numerous animals grazed.

At last we come to the end of today’s tour as more about Hearst Castle will come in a later post.
