MUSEUM
Morgan Library & Museum
Greeley Plaza is beginning to bloom.
The Morgan Library & Museum is one of the "little" jewels in New York. We've walked past it many times since our arrival but never entered and visited.
A life mask of George Washington
One of the Morgan's THREE Gutenberg Bibles.
A manuscript by Beethoven. Looks a little messy?!
A manuscript by Mozart. Looks flawlessly perfect.
The most amazing things I saw, though, were the cylindrical seals from 4,000 years ago used to roll in soft clay or wax and "seal" a letter or an item. They were amazing works of "reverse" art.
The Morgan is well worth a visit.
