You really should have included a photo of the courtyard (or facade) of the original palace for people who have never seen it. I think I like this new addition. It IS grand. A lot of people were very nervous about an addition to the Gardner. Would Isabella have liked it? Maybe.
ISGMuseum is one of my favorites, a gem that all who live in or visit Boston MUST experience. After living in Cambridge for 11 years and JP for 1, followed by an even longer stint in San Francisco/Oakland and currently Cincinnati (don't ask), I was shocked to hear of the new modern addition thinking the original building was going to change (Mrs. Jack's will states that that can't happen!). Now that I've seen the new building here in dwell.com and elsewhere, I can't wait to see this new building up close and personal! Would love to see a photo of the two buildings side-by-side from across the street though to get a clearer vision of the two designs.
