paintings are not created to decorate walls but so that we know where to find our spirituals
I really enjoyed visiting the Prado two days in a row for FREE (during the evening free admission hours). Gets really crowded, though.
Great video.
On the website of the museum I read that video was not allowed. So how did you manage that?
the guy next to the harp in the three panel painting looks remarkably like Paul Ryan.
2 abstract crap modern art destroyer dislike this wonderful master work!
Great Video! I have been to Madrid/ El Prado 4 x in my life. I AM PLANNING my next trip! Where are the Maja Paintings? GORGEOUS!!
Mrs. Gracyalny, hi.
went to Madrid, Toledo, Segovia, Barcelona, and Montserrat for a spring immersion trip with my school this summer. I went to the Prado museum and many other amazing places. I was so amazed by what I saw in Spain. I believe it is the hidden gem of Europe. I have been to Italy, Germany, Luxembourg and France so I was so amazed when I went to Spain and saw all the amazing things it had to offer..I know the Prado is in Madrid but I believe Barcelona is the best city !! Can't wait to go back!!
The artwork at 1:11 is gorgeous, really beautiful.
Wow, the whole museum is a work of art. Great stuff sir!
