Description
This work explores the atmospheric properties of light and shadows withing architectural framework.
The Cloisters Museum (a.k.a. the Manhattan Cloisters) and the gardens that surrounds them is a branch of The Metropolitan Museum of Art devoted to the art and architecture of medieval Europe, and assembled from religious architectural elements that largely date between the 12th through the 15th century. The Cloisters complex is situated on a hill overlooking the Hudson River and incorporates parts of five European abbeys, which were purchased and disassembled in their original countries in Europe ( including the Sant Miguel de Cuixa cloister, and the Fuentidue Apse from a chapel in the province of Segovia ) and then shipped to New York City. Between 1934 and 1939, they were carefully reconstructed and integrated with some new buildings purposely designed in the medieval style by Charles Collens.
