The Metropolitan Museum of Art of New York City, colloquially "the Met",[a] is the largest art museum in the Western Hemisphere. Its permanent collection contains over two million works,[1] divided among 17 curatorial departments. The main building at 1000 Fifth Avenue, along the Museum Mile on the eastern edge of Central Park on Manhattan's Upper East Side, is by area one of the world's largest art museums. A much smaller second location, The Cloisters at Fort Tryon Park in Upper Manhattan, contains an extensive collection of art, architecture, and artifacts from medieval Europe.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art was founded in 1870 with its mission to bring art and art education to the American people. The museum's permanent collection consists of works of art from classical antiquity and ancient Egypt, paintings, and sculptures from nearly all the European masters, and an extensive collection of American and modern art. The Met maintains extensive holdings of African, Asian, Oceanian, Byzantine, and Islamic art. The museum is home to encyclopedic collections of musical instruments, costumes, and accessories, as well as antique weapons and armor from around the world. Several notable interiors, ranging from 1st-century Rome through modern American design, are installed in its galleries.
The Fifth Avenue building opened on February 20, 1872, at 681 Fifth Avenue. In 2021, despite the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City, the museum attracted 1,958,000 visitors, ranking fourth on the list of most-visited art museums in the world.[

We have a Christmas tradition we call ‘stocking fillers’. Small not very expensive gifts are bought for each other. This is one such from Mrs S. Is she suggesting something?
This is a seam ripper, I focussed on the cutting edge.

Mess- und Regeltechniken waren immer schon von hoher Bedeutung in der Schwerindustrie. Hier zu sehen sind alte Thermo- und Manometer in der Gebläsehalle der Henrichshütte Hattingen, heute ein Museum.

Techniques of measurement had always been very important in the heavy industry. Here you can see old thermometers and manometers in the blower hall of the blast furnace plant Henrichshütte Hattingen, Germany.
this is a picture-crop of my beloved Bechstein 8a piano from the year 1936. I love all musical instruments very much, but the piece (made in Berlin) is something very special for me. HMM to everybody !

at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford. It looked a bit like a violin, but it has 6 strings, and is absolutely beautiful! AS you can tell, I don't know much about these things...and there was not enough time to find the appropriate information as we had to get to a Carol Service.....

“Music is probably the one real magic I have encountered in my life. There's not some trick involved with it. It's pure and it's real." -- Tom Petty
I had the privilege to attend a Tom Petty tribute concert over the weekend. There is nothing like participating in the joy of sharing a musical experience with strangers all singing along to favorite songs. It really did feel magical.
Das Bekleben einer E-Gitarre mit Folie (auch "Guitar Wrapping" genannt) ist eine beliebte und reversible Methode, um das Instrument optisch anzupassen, ohne den Originallack zu beschädigen. Günstiger als eine Lackierung, schützt den Originallack vor Kratzern und kann bei Bedarf rückstandslos entfernt werden. 😎👌
Applying a vinyl wrap to an electric guitar (also known as "guitar wrapping") is a popular and reversible method to customize the instrument's appearance without damaging the original finish. It's cheaper than repainting, protects the original finish from scratches, and can be removed without leaving any residue. 😎👌
