New York Series: Architectural Design Inside the Metropolitan Museum of Art

 The art work on display is amazing, but so is the architecture of the museum. The detail in the ceiling is very interesting. It's an open space, but it's not an empty space.

 I know this isn't architecture, but I loved the design of this mirror. I also liked how the actual mirror reminded me of mirrors on Japanese roads (used to see blind spots).
That's us in the reflection of the mirror, Hi!

 Look at the arches, the pillars, the railing.....surprisingly not many people were on this top level. Which is a shame since you get a beautiful view of the entrance area and you get an idea of just how many people walk through those doors.

 Look at the deta oilf the window on the second floor

Leaving the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Good-bye, I had a wonderful time walking around the museum and seeing all the wonderful works of art and I hope to come back again
 soon!

New York Series: Inside The MET

The Tiffany's stained glass window. It was so beautiful! It really is too bad that the person who commissioned this window past away before it was completed. The good news is that it is available for everyone to enjoy when they visit the MET.

 There were some extremely detailed stained glass windows here.

 A carving of the Last Supper. They were tiny, but the artist didn't skimp on the details!

 Reminds me of the artwork I saw in the AyaSofya mosque in Istanbul, Turkey.

 An aged look of the top of the gate.

 I liked these mosaic tiles of flowers.

New York Series: The Metropolitan Museum of Art

We spent the entire day in the MET and we still missed one whole wing! Luckily, the day we decided to go to the MET it was raining. It was a day well spent.

 Egyptian art is always interesting to look at.

 I have to admit my favorite part of the Egyptian exhibit is looking at the hieroglyphics.

 I wonder if they transported this stone by stone and then put them back together....

 The walls were covered in carvings and hieroglyphics.

 It must have taken so long just to complete this one wall.

A nice view of the buildings surrounding the MET.

 Mosaic tiles and statues in the open court.

Lots of natural light in this area.
