Gaudi's cathedral
This panel on the Gothic side of the Sagrada Familia Cathedral contains the musicians in a Nativity scene. The cathedral is still under construction, with 30 to 80 years to go. Construction began in 1882, and it is amazing that the variety of styles of architecture and sculpture all seem to work together. Inside you can see stones and other materials being worked upon, as well as all of the construction scaffolding.
Gaudi Dragon
Gaudi designed this dragon, which is in Guell Park in Barcelona. After looking at some of his architecture I made the connection to the word "gaudy". I loved all of the curves, bright colors, mosaics, and variety of stone shapes; it's all so over the top but still works together.
