Museum!!


Today's blog is all about photos!

Went to the museum with status ever changing Mayee (explained later)




Wonderful stuff they are showing. A little less that I expected (cuz i thought there'd be like super many items) but apparently it's already a record breaking figure that the Louvre was loaning out as it is.

On the left is a very nice looking pot and on the right is a freaking old 2000 triple plus year old spoon! Haha crap descriptive skills I still have even after all my art hist lessons.



And the paintings on those little pots were supposed to be... OOOO... the "beginings of animation..." haha.

Now I shall juxtapose dressings from the EAST meets WEST.


Tadah!!....

Aunty monster finally turned human the last time we met and THIS TIME... Entering the mystical realm of the helen and Greek world, she has once again upgraded herself to be compared to Aphrodite, the Goddess of beauty (I think).

Well I must say the amount of skin exposed was slightly different but oh well.. hahahah....


Our fair Goddess Being Dressed in another style.

Aristotle was amused Just to be in her company

"Ok you can take a photo and bask in my beauty but be quick!"



Never thought we would still be playing dress up at this age. But oh well since there wasn't anything for men..... I got to escape. Hur Hur..

Last but not least I'd like to conclude with a few quotes that we found all around the national museum that day...

"The wine urges me on, the bewitching wine which sets even a wise man to singing and to laughing gentle and rouses him up to dance and brings forth words which were better unspoken." - Homer c. 700BCE

"Thus have the Gods spun the thread for wretched mortals: That they live in grief while they themselves are without cares; For 2 jars stand on the floor of Zeus, of the gifts which he gives, on eof evils and another of blessings" - Homer c. 700BCE

"Love, who is most beautiful among the immortal Gods, the melter of limbs, overwhelms in their hearts the intellegence and wise counsels of all Gods and all men." -Hesiod c. 700BCE
