Ceiling art at the Getty Villa (PPAC #52)

This is a re-visit from my trip to the Getty Villa, a small museum in Pacific Palisades. Would you believe if I told you admissions to the Getty Villa are free? Plus it’s right on the coast — but watch out — the driveway is very steep.

Compared to the much larger Getty Musuem, the Getty Villa is less than 1/3 of that (306,000,000 sq. ft. vs 105,000,000 sq. ft). But I think the Getty Villa has more art despite it’s size — you see the art in the details of the building and the garden. Whenever I go to the Getty Musuem, I can only recall the garden and the view of the 405 and that’s it and I’ve been to the Getty Villa multiple times.

One of things I remembered from my trip to the Getty Villa was admiring the ceiling art in the courtyard. I love the soft blue, gold, and cream color combination.
