Do you think the room with the Leonardo da Vinci’s painting of the Mona Lisa could be a hairdresser shop?
At the Parque Güell there is an area called the Sala de las cien columnas or Space of 100 columns that has over 80 pillars resembling giant stalagmites found in a cave.
Sala de las cien columnas
Barcelona, 2008
When you look at the ceiling, there are four circular rosettes representing the four seasons.
Around each rosette are four smaller ones representing the lunar cycle.
Hard to believe that this enclosed space was once a market for the local residents in the area.
Antoni Gaudi designed the Parque Güell and the Gaudi style is everywhere. For the ceiling, he collaborated with Josep Maria Jujol.
They did the hard part … I just sat on the floor and pulled the trigger.
