Brasília (14)


Source: WTL photograph© on site in Brasília.
Comment: The main entrance to Brasília's Catedral Metropolitana. This photograph illustrates one of the main features of modern architecture: the architecture calls attention to itself, whereas the entrance of humans who visit or use the building is deemphasized. Compare this church entrance, for example, to the entrance to the convent in which Sor Juana was a nun in Mexico City: => Convento de Sor Juana #8.
For a brief virtual tour inside this cathedral, see: => Brasília #14a.
