Architecture, Art and Eggs :O

The first stop of this evenings presentation takes us to Barcelona and the modernisme (or modernista) architecture of Gaudi

Casa Batllo

Casa Mila

Our next stop is in the town of Figueras, about 2 hours from Barcelona by train, the birthplace of Salvador Dali and the site of the Dali museum

Abraham Lincoln or Gala (nude) contemplating the Mediterranean

An amazing painting - at close quarters it is a picture of Dalis muse and soulmate Gala in nude looking at the Mediterranean, at a distance of about 20m or if you squint its a portrait of Abraham Lincoln

Street view of the Dali museum

Winged Victory of Samothrace

We've moved to Paris and the Louvre - never thought that this many people would visit an art museum

Wedding Feast at Cana

An amazing renaissance era painting that occupies the wall opposite the most famous painting in the world

 Mona Lisa

You might ask why the pic is kinda grainy - its coz my hands were shaking ... why you might ask - so i took a picture that would explain the reason

Crowd view in front of the Mona Lisa - taken from the side

You have to push your way through this to get in front to take a pic - the wedding feast at cana (think water to wine) and another gorgeous renaissance painting is also visible - the guy in the front of the pic (with his back to us) is the guard responsible for making sure that people dont get too close

Venus Di Milo

Enjoy :D

"We'll always have Paris"

View of Notre Dame Cathedral from a bridge on the Seine

"I think therefore I am" ... the Pantheon is peeking in the background.

Front view of the Pantheon

View of the Eiffel Tower from the Pont Neuf Bridge

View of the other side from the Pont Neuf Bridge

View of the Louvre from inside the Pyramid

The Louvre Courtyard

For this trip I skipped a few of the traditional sights - Eiffel Tower, Arc De Triomphe, Avenue Champs Elysees and Place du la Concorde (of guillotine fame) ... I visited them the last time I was here and it was cloudy cold and rainy :D

Spirituality - Part 1

Being the new year, we all reflect on the year gone by and our expectations for the year ahead. I found out that there was no better place to go and reflect/meditate on such matters than a place of worship from the middle ages - they were all spectacular as these pictures testify.

Santa Maria Del Pi in the Barri Gotic (Gothic Quarter) area of Barcelona's old city - very simple but awe inspiring.

Santa Maria Del Mar in the La Ribera district of the old city - also equally stunning (and peaceful inside)

Barcelona Cathedral (also in the Barri Gotic area) - another spectacular church.

All of the above churches were built in the 13th - 15th centuries :D

Church of St Pere in Figueras, a town about 2 hours away by train from Barcelona - famous for the Dali museum, which will be the topic of another post :D
