The centre of the museum was redeveloped in 2000. The Great Court is covered by a tessellated glass roof surrounding the original Reading Room. The roof is a glass and steel construction with 1,656 panes of uniquely shaped glass panes.

It is interesting to discover this shot in one of your random photos. Great perspective and the special effect using fisheye! I think if you visit this place again in 2009 and take the same shot, I'm sure that you would make it differently. Anyhow, beautiful architecture!
