Museo Reina Sofia is filled with some of the most renowned contemporary art from all areas of the world. This being said, we certainly came across some pieces of work that \u201cdidn\u2019t speak to me\u201d of which I found it difficult in understanding how it was a masterpiece and much less how it made the cut to be placed in such a famous museum.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, some of the artwork that we came across was stunning. Having previously taken a class in art history, I was able to have a further appreciation when walking around and when I came across the Picasso exhibit I was in awe.
