Sagrada Familia Part Two
The Part Two features the Nativity Facade to the East. Feast your eyes on the details. It is very difficult to take in the entire facade which makes my options very limited to just photographing the details.
The Four Towers of the Nativity Facade.
Scenes from the bible are depicted. Some of these scenes are familiar, this one is not. Can anybody tell me about this scene?
The attention to details is unparalleled.
I am guessing this is Mary visiting her cousin Elizabeth?
Gaudi incorporated a lot of nature in his designs.
The three magi bearing gifts.
Aha, finally found a shot without people!!!!!

Info from wiki:
The towers on the Nativity façade are crowned with geometrically shaped tops that are reminiscent of Cubism (they were finished around 1930), and the intricate decoration is contemporary to the style of Art Nouveau, but Gaudí's unique style drew primarily from nature, not other artists or architects, and resists categorization.
