Spoilers Picard 1x1, "Remembrance"

[Hythlodeus]

I'm not really sure, but after stretching the holoscreen out to more closely match its presumable real proportions and doing a bit of digging on Google, it sort of resembles the Boudhanath stupa in Kathmandu, Nepal. It even has that encircling wall with those black rectangles on it, and a rectangular gold tower with red markings at its base. It would make sense, as it's one of the largest and holiest Tibetan Buddhist pilgrimage sites.

aaah, yes, I can see it

You know what: I now see it as well! When writing the article, I found the Boudhanath stupa but thought it looked too different. Now, after stretching the image, it's clear that it indeed is that stupa. I will add that to the observations article and give you credit for this. Thanks a lot! :-) :-)

Maybe you can help me with this one as well: What painting is hanging over the mantelpiece in Picard's study?
The painting looks very much like it's inspired by Fernand Léger's "Three Women":

After reading The Last Best Hope some months back (and recusing myself from giving it a rating because unmitigated tragedy is so utterly outside of my normal taste in literature), it was with great trepidation that I cracked my brand new Picard DVD set.

And all I can say is WOW!

I will note that both of Data's daughters showed a certain "17-jewel-movement" quality to them*, and even if I hadn't caught a spoiler or two about them being Data's daughters, I might have still guessed it before the reveal.

*Who was it that said something to that effect about Rayna Kapec, in TOS:RM? I know I read that phrase somewhere. . .

Remembrance is a really great episode. I recently rewatched it. I really thought Isa Briones did a terrific job playing Dahj and Soji in the first episode.
