Today we landed in Brussels, Belgium and traveled to multiple museums where we had the chance to look at comics and of course beautiful pieces of art work. The last museum we visited was the Fine Art Museum, which had many famous works of art. Each student was given a piece of art to search for, admire, and contemplate. My piece was the Annunciation by the Master of Flemalle. As you can see in the picture above, the painting is truly magnificient. It really captures your eye and makes you wonder the story behind the piece. My first thought was maybe the Angel was talking to Mary and they were having a breakfast together in her home. I had many of my friends view the painting too and they agreed with me. The piece was very dark in the background but also very comforting to see the angel and her detailed wings. Overall, I enjoyed being able to see this painting in person and the many other paintings in this mueseum!
