Getty Museum

             Getty Center is a place to experience and enjoy art in unique setting that features dramatic architecture, tranquil gardens, and breathtaking views. The Getty Center is surrounded yet slightly removed from the city, evoking both urbanity and peaceful contemplation. It is located at the very high peak of the mountain, which is perfect view of the surrounding area. The Getty center is over two-hill top ridge; stand inside the museum Entrance Hall"s cylindrical space-which recall the soaring rotundas of many great building of the past. .

             Even thought the Getty center is privately owned but dedicated to the visual arts and the humanities and it has a lot more to offer to its visitors, than any other museum I ever visited though out my lifetime. The Getty provides opportunities for people to more fully understand, experience, value, and preserve the world's artistic and cultural heritage.

             Getty museum trip starts at the very bottom of the train station, which is built to carry visitors at the top Arrival plaza area, which is located surrounding the Green trees and area is made of Marble architecture. As we Enter into the Building the A shape of metal frame is built which show Welcome to visitors. The museum it self is separated into four different section which are North Pavilion, South Pavilion, East Pavilion and West Pavilion, which has its own type of collection of art and sculpture from the past history. .

             As walked in at first sight we spotted a North Pavilion, which is filled with marvelous exhibition of stain glass painting, which is done by artist called of Durer, and Holbein was the apprentice, which worked right by side of his master. Durer introduced to the medium the same vast spaciousness, sculptural modeling, and depth of expression that are found in his paintings and prints. Stained in Glass was a renaissance art form, although widely thought of medieval art, stain glass flourished during renaissance, especially in Germany and Switzerland.
