The Cloisters. The Metropolitan Museum of Art

New York (United States)


Photography: María José Martínez Ruiz
Description

The Cloisters is the section of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York devoted to Medieval Art. The museum is located in northern Manhattan, in Fort Tryon Park, and is made up of a collection of cloisters and architectural fragments from Europe integrated into a modern building that seeks to evoke ancient medieval monasteries. John D. Rockefeller Jr. (1874-1960) was the great benefactor of this institution. He acquired the early collection of sculptor and art dealer George Grey Barnard, the basis of The Cloisters collection, and donated the land on which the present Cloisters complex was built to The Metropolitan Museum of Art. It was opened in 1938. Numerous works of art from Spain are now part of the Cloisters' collection, including the apse of San Martín de Fuentidueña (Segovia), the tombs of the Counts of Urgel from the monastery of Bellpuig de las Avellanas (Lérida), several mural fragments from the hermitage of San Baudelio de Berlanga (Casillas de Berlanga, Soria), the façade of San Martín de Fuentidueña (Segovia), the tombs of the Counts of Urgel from the monastery of San Baudelio de Berlanga (Casillas de Berlanga, Soria) and the façade of San Martín de Fuentidueña (Soria), Soria), the doorway of San Vicente de Frías (Burgos), two fragments of mural decoration from the monastery of San Pedro de Arlanza (Burgos), a relief from the church of San Leonardo de Zamora, the sculpture of Santiago el Mayor by Gil de Siloe from the Cartuja de Miraflores (Burgos), etc.
