...Simply Impressive

Another one of Antoni Gaudí's projects, and more than likely his most impressive work, was La Catedral de la Sagrada Familia en Barcelona. This building was started in 1909, and one year after construction began, the notorious architect (which only built in his native Catalunya) was named director of the city project. This amazing building has taken one hundred years so far, and is still not finished. Gaudí spent forty years of his life with this as his main work, and dying without completing it. There are still three main towers (and also the largest towers) that must be constructed. These are the tower of the Father, the tower of the Virgin Mary (which is slightly smaller), and the tower of the Evangelist (which is smaller even). Another interestng point to take into consideration is that the Catholic Church only uses alms and donations from the church to continue building. This Photo demonstrates the amazing talent that the great architect had by showing the study of nature and the installation of these aspects into his architecture.
