- Support Already saw this on quality image candidates and thought it would be worth being nominated here. Great colors and framing. Also thanks for the excellent image description that goes along with this photo. All together I'm wondering whether I should book my next trip to Japan. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 03:49, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
- Same for me with your pictures of Nagano :-) Thanks, Frank! -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:21, 14 January 2020 (UTC)

- Support - This is fun. I think of Christo and compare this favorably to the "Gates" he and Jeanne-Claude temporarily installed in Central Park, New York City in 2005. Is there a particular artist who should be credited with this installation, or is it part of the train station that they hired people to do and that the city (or the railway company, if it's private) takes credit for? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:41, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, this is certainly a similar case of installation in a public space. I'm discovering these "Gates" now. Very nice. Thanks, Ikan, for the reference! -- Basile Morin (talk) 08:36, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
- Sure thing, though to be honest, my favorite thing about that installation was that it was temporary. :-) I notice this language in your file description: "developed by the interior designer Yasumichi Morita". But developed doesn't mean the same as installed. I suppose the point is that Morita planned out the installation and then it was executed to his specifications by people employed to do so? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:14, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
- Ha ha! These gates you refer to evoke me those ones from Japan, that's maybe why I appreciate them. You may be right about the distinction. I got the details of the description from what I could find on the web -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:52, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
- I like those. But I pretty much always like toriis. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:51, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
