Statuesque At The Victoria and Albert

 I have never been a big museum fan but that 

changed BIG TIME when I was in London. 

 I spent a chunk of my day at the

Victoria and Albert Museum and now, 

I am smitten.

My favorite area of the museum was

the Museum's Reproduction Department.

 Large spaces were dedicated to the reproduction of

famous statues and three dimensional art.  This David

is one of the projects these artisans were working on 

when I was there.  There was a gallery overlooking 

the work space and I sat fascinated for a long 

time watching the projects come to life.

 Even smaller pieces of work were absolutely exquisite.

This work was in a showcase.

I loved how the artist depicted the Last Supper.  

Such wonderful faces.

 And this one .....

 I think I was most attracted by the colors

that were used in the plaster.

This is the entrance to the Victoria and Albert.

A gorgeous building with a modern entrance.

Such a fresh approach to

exhibiting art.

Next post I will show you some other

beautiful reproduced works of art.
