Meditation at the MET

7.08.2011

Whenever I get the chance, I love going to The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Even though walking in feels like a game of Frogger to avoid everyone hanging out on the steps, once inside, its a great escape from the hustle and bustle. 

The Greek and Roman galleries are my favorite. Its definitely the gallery I visit the most, and some how always find something new, that I missed the previous trip. Seeing the human body in its purest, most natural form, is really fascinating. Well to me at least. Especially when it comes to the female form and seeing what was considered beautiful then, and comparing it to what people consider beautiful now.

While this recent trip to the MET was brief, here are a few favorites, old and new.





And now this picture: 
Notice the security guard on the left. 
I was trying my hardest to get the shot right, and here he comes giving me his best Top Model pose.
