Did you respond to our #MetPopQuiz? Earlier today, we asked you to identify a detail of one of our galleries. If you said that the detail was of The Astor Chinese Garden Court...you’re right! ⁣ ⁣ Modeled on a 17th-century courtyard in the Garden of the Master of the Fishing Nets in Suzhou, the court was entirely constructed using traditional tools and techniques. An 18th-century imperial kiln was reopened to fire the ceramic tiles; rare nan wood was hand-planed into columns; specimen Taihu rocks were used for the rockeries; and a granite terrace was hand chiseled from a Suzhou quarry.⁣ ⁣ The #AstorCourt was inspired by Brooke Russell Astor, who spent part of her childhood in China, The Astor Court and its adjoining reception room opened to the public in 1981, a gift of the Vincent Astor Foundation.
