The idea of cutting up a medieval manuscript is almost unthinkable today. Historically, however, this practice was relatively common, and it reached a fever pitch in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. People cut up manuscripts for various reasons: Dealers unwilling to pay weight-based import duties on large choir books opted to remove their decorated initials and dispose of the heavy bindings. Art lovers excised pictures from manuscripts and pasted them into albums; many considered this an act of freeing precious artworks from the text-filled books that held them captive. The dismembering of manuscripts was thus regarded not as vandalism but as a tribute to the otherwise hidden illuminations.

When I heard that this treasure classical museum in Midtown New York has a rich library collection museum, I immediately added it to the punch list, and after shopping, I immediately upgraded to New York&#39;s favorite Top3 museum series, whether it is the appearance of the museum or the exhibits inside. It&#39;s a surprise. Such a spectacular museum is the famous private collection of J. P. Morgan, and there are many of his donations in the Metropolitan Museum. Seeing the library of books on a grand scale, I instantly realized the true meaning of the old saying that the book has its own golden house. The museum itself is also very architectural, from the famous Italian architect Renzo Piano, the library and the museum itself are very cleverly integrated together, the classical library, looking up is full of books, with deep red printed walls and velvet curtains, Full of literary temperament, it must be a different kind of enjoyment to read here

Best Things to Do

与神同行abc

The Metropolitan Museum of Art is a stunning art hall with a rich collection of art to linger. Whether it is ancient Egyptian statues, European Renaissance paintings, or Asian calligraphy and porcelain, each hall is like a window to different civilizations. Standing in the Egyptian Pavilion and watching the fully restored Danyu Temple is enough to marvel at the exquisiteness of ancient craftsmanship. In the European Painting Pavilion, Van Gogh&#39;s &quot;Rye and Cypress&quot; and Monet&#39;s &quot;Waterlily&quot; are near, and each one is full of vitality. The armor and weapons exhibition hall is like entering the world of medieval knights, those finely carved armor seems to still tell the story of the battlefield. Even after a whole day of shopping, I feel that there is not enough time. Every time I enter a hall, I can find new surprises and I am reluctant to leave.

The price/performance ratio is very high. You can see the Statue of Liberty from many angles without getting off the boat. It is still very shocking. The guide is very interesting and will make jokes. The crew who takes pictures is also very good and will help pose.

There&rsquo;s something magical about seeing the Empire State Building in real life&mdash;it feels like stepping into a movie. The architecture is stunning, and it stands so proudly over the city. I caught myself just looking up for a while, taking it all in. Definitely one of those New York moments that stays with you.
