A Sunday Stroll Through The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York City
There is a peaceful and calming painting by the artist Georges Seurat, titled: “Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte.” In the painting, Seurat depicts ordinary people relaxing in a suburban park, on a typical Sunday in Paris (painted around 1884).
Today, many people find it just as relaxing to stroll through Les Grande Salles of the Metropolitan Museum of Art on a typical Sunday afternoon in New York City.
Here are some photos from a very short stroll I took through the Met on a recent Sunday. I only went through a small portion of the ground floor, taking snaps of whatever objects caught my eye.
I am sharing my afternoon here, with you. Enjoy!

| The underside of the grand staircase facing the entrance, each stair-step was carved out of a rough stone, the building opened to the public in 1880. I thought this was interesting! |
