Respect the good & understand the bad
Went to the Louvre in Paris last year and not really knowing anything about it prior to the visit I was amazed by it :ohmy:

I also came across this classic while I was there lol

I love Museums, one of my favorite activities. I have a "favorite" Museum. I visit every museum whenever I visit a City



But to answer your question, any piece from 1750 to 1920. Industrial Revolution brought alot of artistic flare when it came to Political Philosophy, Paintings, Immigration, Finance, etc etc

Ah, one must delve into the intricate nuances of this piece, appreciating the juxtaposition of ephemeral concepts, transcending the banality of mere representation. The artist's subversion of conventional paradigms invites us to question the very essence of artistic expression, appealing to a discerning intellect.

Very thought provoking piece of artistry.

I like all museums to be real witcha

My favorite piece is Michelangelo's Pieta

Amazing. In my opinion, this is a masterpiece that effortlessly captures the essence of grief and compassion. You can tell by the the intricate details, like the delicate folds of Mary's robes to the serene expression on her face... It really evokes a profound emotional response. And also the way this piece is sculpted from the marble to convey a sense of weightlessness... it adds to the overall impact of the piece

Have you been to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts?

I asked people's favorite because I think some Museums are time consuming and I would not want to visit again.
I went the Vatican Museum, it was a nice museum (the Sistine Chapel is the most famous work) but I would not visit again because it was just too crowded and there was no air conditioning.

I do like the Met very much, I could see myself going there again, because I just didn't have enough time too see all of it. It is accessible and has a nice atmosphere.

Unfortunately, I never been to the one in Boston, but I heard it's amazing

In my travels, I have to say the North East has such a great collection of Museums

Musèe Gustave Moreau in Paris.

Moreau is my favorite painter. They turned his residence and studio into a museum. It's a very intimate space.



My second favorite is Musèe d'Orsay for its large collection of impressionist paintings.

The Vatican and sisteen chapel was insane because it’s extremely opulent. The lourve is insanely big, you can go everyday for a week and still not see everything. The British museum has a very impressive Egyptian exhibit, so does the met in ny.
