Because of Unfamiliar Fishes I wanted to see the Bishop Museum, a place I had not visited before, known for “the world’s largest collection of Polynesian cultural and scientific artifacts” and where Sarah Vowell spent a nice chunk of time.
Charles Reed Bishop built this first structure in 1898 in honor of his late wife Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop, to house the family’s heirlooms. They call the style ‘Richardsonian Romanesque architecture’. I’ve only got a side shot, not the elegant front. I don’t know what I’ve forgotten until it’s too late!
