Façana de la Passió

The Passion facade is supported by six large columns which resemble Sequoia trunks. It features a pyramidal pediment with 18 bone shaped columns atop the six columns and all this culminates in a large cross with a crown of thorns.The entry porch is made up of six leaning, unadorned columns in front of the façade, which hold up a cornice where Gaudí designed another portico area in the shape of a pediment or upper narthex. The eighteen bone-shaped pillars symbolise those who died and create a covered space through which Gaudí conveyed the Bosom of Abraham.

It's beautifully crafted, but as I said before, I find the color a bit jarring in relation to the rest of the structure. Well captured in any case. V.
