John Nash: Movies
built 606 days ago
The contribution John Nash made to the collective is significant, yet the personal pain and torment is as well. Often it is with great personal sacrifice of one form or another that such contributions are made. It seems he is moving from the personal (SN 5th) to transpersonal (NN 11th) this lifetime; all that he has known and outgrown must be destroyed, therefore the battle of the little self/will and the greater Will ensues.
Nash's difficulties with the conversion of Buckingham House (into Buckingham Palace) are well-documented. Intended for Nash's great ally, George IV, building took so long that the King died before he could move in. Such was the extravagance of Nash's scheme which included features such as a pair of winged victories supporting a proscenium arch in the throne room, walls clad in silk with plenty of gilding and sweeping marble staircases, that parliament was moved to object.
Nash had designed a triumphal gateway to stand at the end of the Mall. However, it was discovered that the state coach was too wide to fit through the opening! The gate was then moved to Hyde Park corner, where it became known as Marble Arch.
