The Met
Fro 1000 DFB
Going to an art museum was never my forte. If it wasn’t required to go by the teacher, I would’ve never went. Going there as a class of 40 plus people was not a smart idea. Most of the time, we had no idea what the teacher was talking back. In the end, we all decided to just wander around the museum by ourselves and stop to take photos of whatever art pieces caught our attention. Surprisingly, there were a few paintings that intrigued me such as The View of Toledo by El Greco. For some reason, it’s dark and mysteriousness caught my attention. In some ways it reminded me of The Starry Night. After the museum, a group of us actually waited for out Pre Cal teacher by the fountain. We had a math test the following week and she came to help us out with the study guide.
I believe the art history teacher is going to make us go to a few more art museums throughout the semester but, I’m sure most of us will go again. It was quite fun for all of us to hang out and chill outside of a school environment and we also talked to the professor more. It’s always nice to see when a professor is so passionate and intrigued about what they are teaching. I was really amazed honestly because the professor basically knew most of the paintings hanging in the museum. Overall, the MET wasn’t as boring as I thought. I’ve been there a few times before and it has some really nice places for pictures.
