The Met Cloisters is at the northern end of Manhattan in Fort Tryon Park at 99 Margaret Corbin Drive and is run by the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

When I was an Urban Park Ranger many years ago I reenacted Maggie Corbin’s story in the revolutionary war. Read the story on Wikipedia.

Heavenly Bodies in 3 Colors

Sherry Felix13 Comments

Heavenly Bodies is a fun exhibit at the Met and Cloisters in NYC loosely based on Falini’s satirical commentary on the Catholic Church in his 1972 film, Roma. The costumes are excellent and so are the settings. I spent time removing the crowds and processing the photos.
