User talk:Giano/Pena Palace

Plan[edit]

Giano, the best high altitude photo I can find (google earth) has pretty blotchy resolution, do we have any floor plates or site plans I could use to construct the plan? regards --Joopercoopers (talk) 15:51, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think we need Husond here, he has uploaded some models which may help. I know he is trying to get hold of a book. Without a pplan, so complicated is the design, no one is ever going to have a clue what is what. I'll leave him a message. Giano (talk) 08:50, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That was from Lisbon, Eyewitness Travel Guides, Dorling Kindersley ISBN 0751310840 1997 pp.100-101 Yomangani ^talk 12:07, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just spent a couple of hours searching for a view over the palace that could serve as a base for the elaboration of a diagram. Couldn't find anything better than this and this. I've sent an email to an association that promotes Sintra's heritage, they might help me getting a scanned version of the Pena Palace and Park map. If not, only by the end of next month may I provide the much needed resources. Regards, Hús ö nd 14:02, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fear not, Yomangani emailed me an exploded drawing (yes, that is what they are realy called) and I emailed it to JC, it is copyright, so we can't upload it, but it should help a little when coupled with the other pictures. I'll forward it toy you now. Thanks Yomangani Giano (talk) 14:21, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
