HOLA Barcelona
Hola mis amigos, i want to introduce you this pics from my travel to Barcelona, was a nice oportunity to be in contact with great architecture....and to know the magnificent gaudís work....La sagrada Familia
This is the columbus monument, with big steel lions on the base. It was constructed for the Exposición Universal de Barcelona (1888) in honor to Columbus first voyage to the Americas. ( begin of colonisation ;( ) The monument serves as a reminder that Christopher Columbus reported to Queen Isabella I and King Ferdinand V in Barcelona after his first trip to the new continent (yeah right, he wasnt the first...but anyway...)
This is from the beautifull Port of Barcelona, it has a 2000-year history and great contemporary commercial importance as one of Europe's ports in the Mediterranean ;) , as well as Catalonia's largest port, tying with Tarragona.
It is also Spain's third and Europe's ninth largest container port, with a trade volume of 2.57 million TEUs in 2008.
off course, this is my messy hair...with the wind!!
and...tatatatata...the magnificent "Sagrada Familia" temple!!! still in construction. Particulary this is the pasion fasade!!!
and guess what....inside is unbelievable !!!is masive, and so beautiful, indescriptible, Gaudí was a master and a moster, a geniuos...i dont have word to describe this inteligence and magnifisense sense of taste
there is more, at gaudís time, there werent methods to calculate the efforts to build the sagrada familia desing, so Gaudí created his own method!!! so badass architect....jajajaja
"Some mention to the analogy with cables (and possibly the use of models) and, with certainty, lectures about graphical analysis ofarches and, perhaps, of vaults. However, Gaudi used the concept of catenary arches in acompletely original way: to integrate the structural design in the process of architectural design. It is not a matter of verifying the stability of a certain
design; it is a matter of projecting, from the start, using stable shapes"
master!!!
so my friends, i hope you're great today, i send you big hugs and big love ok!!!
hope you enjoy my post!!! and reestemit it!!
