EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking photograph captures the awe-inspiring Dome of the Great Hall at Guell Palace in Barcelona, Spain. Designed and built between 1885 and 1889 by the renowned Catalan architect Antoni Gaudi (1852-1926), this architectural masterpiece is a testament to the beauty and innovation of the Modernist movement. The Dome, located in the heart of the palace, is a marvel of engineering and artistry. The intricately designed wooden ribs that form the dome's structure are supported by elegant, curved columns, creating a stunning visual effect. The dome's bottom, visible in this bottom-up shot, is adorned with colorful ceramic tiles and intricate mosaic work, adding to the overall beauty and grandeur of the space. The Great Hall, also known as the Aubourg Room, was originally intended to be a tavern and social club for the workers of the Guell estate. However, it was never used for this purpose and instead became a private room for Eusebi Guell, the patron of the palace. The room's high ceiling, large windows, and intricate woodwork create an atmosphere of opulence and elegance. This photograph, taken at a lower angle, offers a unique perspective of the Dome, allowing us to fully appreciate its intricate details and the skillful craftsmanship of Antoni Gaudi. The use of natural light filtering through the windows adds to the room's warm and inviting ambiance, making it a truly magical space that continues to captivate visitors from around the world.
