This PowerPoint on the Museo de Prado truly helped me discover the different types of art works in one single museum. This museum consists on average 7000 artworks. The main artist is Fransico Goya and Diego Velazquez. It also helped me understand the construction of the different halls and what they consisted of. I learned more about the Juxapostion of artworks. Also, sine this museum is located in Spain is showed more of Variety of Spains works. This also taught me that each Museum represents the culture it is located at. The Museo de Prado had many more rooms in which I did not mention due to its great size.
