The Art Of Spain

Somehow I never thought about how many of the world's greatest artists lived in Spain. Picasso, Dali, Goya, Velasquez, El Greco...Indeed, Spain has given the world a lot. I probably liked this one about Spain the most of all the shows Dixon had already seen. But literature, for example, was not even touched upon. Cervantes, de Vega, Lorca. Or music.

Antonio Gaudi, another magnificent genius, Park Guell is amazing. Why is there a park, ordinary residential buildings...? Why are there so few houses to live in like this?(((
And the Calatrava Winery? It's wonderful, it takes your breath away.

The mosque in Cordoba is simply magnificent! And yes, the altar and the church inside are also good, but how cruel it is (((
Medina Al-Sahara, at first glance, is not so impressive, but when every inch is shown in the finest carvings...Oh, what a delight, how much time and work it takes to do it all...And yes, how did it all look not destroyed, but at the zenith of glory.
On the other hand, there is a huge altar in the Cathedral of Seville, tiny figures, thousands of details, so distinctive ...
the Seville Alcazar? The Alhambra, of course...I wish I could see it all in person. The only thing is, I've never thought about tourists, imagine it's all quiet, peaceful, when you wander in deserted halls and look at every corner...And you're not jostling around the same curious people as you)
It was also very interesting about flamenco. And it's nice to see such a "rehabilitation" of the Islamic, Moorish heritage from Andrew, who always tells the truth, does not lie.

The Escorial Palace is amazing. Countries are lucky to have such huge, luxurious and beautiful palaces.
The story of Teresa of Avila and her relics, in exquisite crystal vessels, but on public display, just gives goosebumps...You don't know how to react to this.
