An evening with Sherlock Holmes
« on: February 06, 2010, 10:58:31 »
In keeping with the release of the Sherlock Holmes movie which I really recommend for its great atmosphere and story true to Conan Doyle's novels...


Here is an Evening with Sherlock Holmes

In the magnificent Ball Room filled with Bouquets of Flowers, the Pianist is playing Waltzes, Elegant Ladies and Distinguished Gentlemen have only one topic on their minds tonight : the most famous Detective of All Times is there, before their very eyes, Sherlock Holmes himself !!!

Brass Chandelliers are shining, the Silver is polished, and look at that Feast : Champagne on Ice, Caviar, Oysters, Cheese Platter, Studded Ham, Orange Pate and those delicious Cakes...

If Sherlock is enjoying the attention, he still cannot take his eyes away from the splendid Buffet...the Cooks have really excelled themselves tonight !!!

Amongst the happy notes from the Piano, conversations and laughters will certainly not stopped until the night is gone...one stylish Victorian Party indeed !!!

What a wonderful banquet and setup Karim! I'm always astonished at the realism of the food items you have, and the details you put into your works.

I'm a great fan of Sherlock Holmes, and listen to the stories frequently as audio books. I haven't seen the film yet, but I think I'll go along on my next day off next week.

Hi Karim,

Where do you find the time for such splendid Dioramas. They are great and all the special details you create for them really makes them so unique.

I have not seen this video for Sherlock so I will look out for it . OR are you saying the "movie" is the one in theaters and not the ones Karim puts his pictures to with music ?

 we went to see this movie a month ago and it was quite exciting.

Thanks for sharing

Your Victorian diorama has so much detail and that food looks so delicious.  I like your Sherlock Holmes klicky too!  ;D
