As no one ever seems to be absolutely correct with guesses for LB's,
I think Tica's pic refers to the International Student "Olympics", and the column is somewhere the games have taken place.
Unfortunately there are a lot of them, both Winter and Summer, since 1923 (Paris).
Given the type of plants and grass, I think it is Northern Hemisphere, but there is just too many places to search.
Wild guess - Paris?
