I currently went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and it was a very eye seeing experience. This was my first time going and I didn’t know what to expect but I was also excited to see the many exhibits that they had to offer. One of the main exhibits that grasped my attention was old European century palace decor. I was so intrigued of how different houses looked in the inside especially the interior texture. I was able to see the living interiors of kings and queens and how they decorated. It was amazing because each wall of the living rooms and even master rooms were designed to have the highest quality of luxury including gold texture around the beds, and chandeliers hanging above the bed. It was so beautiful because you can really see that kings and queens were the tipping point of lavish in their time. This exhibit interested me a lot because I was able to compare it to the houses that we have now and our own interior texture. Now a days you don’t see rooms or houses made out of gold or extravagant objects laying across the floor. I truly was amazed and learned a lot about old European texture.

Hey Ivin, glad you enjoyed the exhibit! Can you relate it to anything we read in the class–perhaps to the bedroom scenes in Sir Gawain, for example?
