On Wednesday morning we headed to the Metropolitan Museum of Arts. There
we were divided into two groups. Our group went with Kristel and a nice quide
lady. First we went to watch some ancient Greek and Roman sculptures.
Metropolitan is designed very nicely and the halls are all made to look like
places where the artwork could have formely been. The quide also asked
questions so we were well concentrated on the round all the time. We saw a room
whose walls had been found from Pompei and then an Egyptian temple with its pharaos
and everything. It was amazing. Some of the students wanted to see mummies so
we shortly visited them, too. Then we went to see a painting that presented the
death of Socrates. Those of the students who have been in philosophy course had
seen a picture of that painting there so it was interesting to see the original
artwork. And then after one Picasso painting our tour was over.
We went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art on
Wednesday. It is the largest art museum in the United States. It has about two
million art pieces in its collection. The museum was really e because of
its large selection of art. There were sculptures, paintings, modern art pieces
and even a temple from Egypt.
In addition, the guide of my group was very good and made us think and analyze
the art pieces very much which made the tour very pleasant. This was the best
museum visit on our trip in my opinion.
