Highlights of The Met Cloisters

[@coreygrua3271]

This video is enough to make me want to live in New York City. The Met has SO much to fill my soul, and the souls of millions. I appreciate our local museums even more now. WonderFUL!

[@jerusalmit12]

Absolutely adore Cloisters, inside and outside. I visit every time, often multiple times when in New York.

Beautiful tour of the Cloisters, my favorite place in NYC.

Great to see humble plants like dandelions so appreciated and Lucretia in her element! Very interested to see snowdrops in that old book too. Early illustrations of galanthus are quite rare.

Amazing inside look - please keep releasing these videos!

So happy to have stumbled across this breathtaking episode. I am planning to come see all this with my own eyes come spring. The ladies are all very special and knowledgeable in their own rights. What a joy it must be to belong to such a inspirational group of colleagues, thank you all

The MET cloisters was my favorite part of my Manhattan trip.

[@voltair42]

This video was auto played after a comedy video about an audio tour of the MET Cloisters led to a battal royal... I have found this hilarious.

[@willagnes8376]

Love this place.

[@dafnimbus]

I am reading a book called the cloisters now.

[@AndYourLittleDog]

Anybody else get anxiety when he blew on the dandelion clock?

[@metmuseum]

So did our Cloisters staff!

[@harperwelch5147]

Where is this building? Belongs to the Met, so somewhere in NY?

Fort Tryon Park

[@hummersd]

Love this! Out of curiosity for the timing of the blooming of those flowers, was this filmed in Spring?

[@metmuseum]

Hi, great catch! Yes, this was originally filmed in late spring.

[@Adam-ix2sn]

The Cloisters is an exciting place. This narrator and video made it look very boring.

[@1keithvincent]

Rather shocked to see any curator NOT wearing gloves when turning the pages of a rare manuscript.

[@linuszimmermann6120]

You are more likely to damage books when wearing gloves. There are entire books written on this topic of why one shouldn't wear gloves. Every major institution, like the Met Cloisters has abandoned them for several reasons, i.e. Gloves don't protect the book, they only increase the risk of tearing pages.

[@PinochleIsALie]

​@@linuszimmermann6120 And isn't there something too about the oils in your hand actually helping to preserve the pages? I think it's come up on the Objectivity channel before
