Museums
What can I say, I love museums.
Look, it's me! I'm standing in front of the entrance of the KHM in Vienna with their Tizian exhibition. |
José Rizal puts it in much better words than I ever could:
„It was the first time that I saw a museum. The pleasure it gave me is indescribable, so much so that I thought of spending the whole day there. I devoured with my eyes all that I found there”.
-Reminiscences and travels of Jose Rizal. Volume I. Manila 1977. Page 75
Museums are always on my to-do when I go to another country or city. And
if the city has a textile or fashion museum, even better!
I also enjoy going to art museums for inspiration or quick clothing studies. That is especially true for the medieval time period because there are only few clothing pieces left from that time.
Send me a message if you want the higher resolution of any of the pictures!
