Let's start this final post about Würzburg with the truly impressive grandeur of the Prince-Bishop's Residence built by Baltasar Neumann. Exploring the fine difference between grandeur and pomp, we then proceed to Würzburg Town Hall. The traveler strolling through the city and taking photographs finds the wonderful summer weather magnificent, while as a free spirit, no fitting image of "pomp" seems to be within reach. Grandeur and pomp, the jester thinks, relate to each other like magic to sorcery, emotion to passion, love to desire, or an intimate playful kiss to come . . . - Constantly and unsuccessfully he tries to capture the impishness lurking behind, and a jester might suspect foul play in the intention of the strolling and photographing traveler, essayist, and protagonist of this post, who as a traveler, continues to be permeated by love and the notion that the most significant encounters are given in a providential way, imaginatively accompanied in this beautifully picturesque city by these particular loving and beloved people surrounding him in life.
Applauded joyously by an agreeable audience, the ensemble bids farewell to the traveler as the director of this journey through the Main and Tauber valleys at the Kiliansbrunnen in front of the main train station with a last panoramic view. The traveler as the director, who now embarks on the train to Rothenburg ob der Tauber, to present this picturesque little town in a subsequent and final post. May the audience enjoy the present post until then. Joy and deeply inspired love.
