>For the first time since I had been in Barcelona I went to have a look at the cathedral - a modern cathedral, and one of the most hideous buildings in the world. It has four crenellated spires exactly the shape of hock bottles. Unlike most of the churches in Barcelona it was not damaged during the revolution - it was spared because of its ‘artistic value’, people said. I think the Anarchists showed bad taste in not blowing it up when they had the chance, though they did hang a red and black banner between its spires.
How does it feels to know that George Orwell was a beastly pleb?

Daily reminder atheist are no better than the taliban when it comes to destroying religious artifacts.

Its form is inspired by nature which is the antithesis of godfaggotry.

>Orwell's description of Kopp's background has been questioned. According to this source, Kopp had invented most of his own past. For example, he claimed to have been a Belgian and to have served in the Belgian army. Although personal records show that Kopp understood what was at stake in Spain, he privately also admitted simply being on the run from a broken marriage. He had an ex-wife Germaine Warnotte and five young children when he went to Spain.
A pleb and a lousy journalist.

Which is funny because the whole naturalistic design is supposed to be a tribute to God's creation.
The Sagrada Familia looks crummy from afar for the same reason Hindu temples do: Festooning the entire goddamn thing with unrelated imagery. It has no flow. It looks like a fucking drip castle.
>>2409344
Sagrada Familia is weird. You either fucking love it or hate it with a passio .
That being said Orwell was a huge fuckinh ignorant fuck, a bad journalist and indeed a fucking pleb.
Outside looks kind of retarded, but the inside is glorious.

The Sigarda is the only thing between us and the death of the church
>>2409356
lol being this triggered
>>2409344
It's not a cathedral, just a church. The cathedral in Barcelona is pic related
>>2409670
It is funny how much the Catalan goverment invested on remodeling the cathedral to look well and give the city some sense of historical relevance that it never had. At least Madrid doesn't LARP as hard. It looked like pic in the early XX's
>>2409921
Oopps wrong pic
>>2409921
It looked good
>>2409921
Are you buttblasted because of valencia match?
>>2409935
That was a wrong pic
>>2409955
I am not even from Madrid. But Barcelona always LARPs about their importance when they were a mid tier mediterranean city second to Valencia in the crown of Aragon and very little relevance overall until the XIX century
>>2409344
Orwell was an Anglo idiot. He also wrote an entire essay butthurting about Tolstoy just because Tolstoy criticized Shakespeare once.
>>2409354
