Description
The "Glyptothek" (Munich, Germany) houses a collection of Greek sculptures.
It is a paradies for art lovers and for ... ?
... for photographers. (Yes!)
Though this museum is small, it's indescribable beautiful.
The great architecture of the building (finished 1830), the wonderful different kinds of light inside the building and last but not least the Greek sculptures ... gorgeous.
I made more then 50 very different photos, one more beautiful then the other.
(This should not be a self-praise, but a homage to the museum.)
Therefore it was a very, very hard work, to pitch on only three pieces.
