my photos of europe at flickr

I’ve begun uploading the many photos taken when I was in Europe, so for those who’ve been waiting to see them, you can find them over there.

I’m not sure who painted this one, nor do I know its name (if you do, then please let me know).

I was in awe of all the paintings and frescos, the detailed gold moldings and artwork found on many of the ceilings of The Louvre. One never really appreciates or understands the magnitude of the more than 35,000 pieces of art showcased at The Louvre until one sees it with his/her own eyes. I was simply astounded at the size of this former palace, and the sheer number of works on display.

I mainly went to The Louvre to see the Mona Lisa, but there was The Winged Victory, and the Venus De Milo, and the opulent apartments of Napoleon, and more…

Anyways, more photos will be uploaded to my flickr account, so keep checking back. The photos will be divided by city: London, Paris, Venice, Florence, Pisa, Rome, and the Vatican City.
