Un Día en Montjuic y el Museu de Arte Nacional de Catalunya

This was taken inside the Museum of National Art of Catalunya, which I think is my favorite museum I've ever been to. It's situated in a huge, beautiful park on "Montjuic," a hill on the side of Barcelona overlooking the city.

Also at Montjuic. And I'd like to know, which do you prefer? The above, or the one below?

Una angelita que mira sobre la ciudad...
This was on a little plaza in front of the museum where an hombre was playing really pretty and relaxing classical guitar. It was one of those perfectly pleasant moments of overlooking a beautiful European city in the sunset light, accompanied by a romantic acoustic guitar soundtrack.

Below is a shot of the Romanesque exhibit... this is art that was peeled off of ancient church walls in Barcelona and plastered onto the museum walls. It's from the 11th century and as you can see, the characters look like cartoons because artists of that time hadn't really gotten the depth concept down yet. This isn't the greatest picture, but you're not supposed to take pictures in museums so I had to be sneaky and quick.

So that's a good summary of my quiet, wintry afternoon of last Friday in Barcelona. Qué corazón que esta ciudad tiene!
Amor,
