The Metropolitan Museum of Art‚ known to be a sanctuary for a great collection of art‚ was brimming with tourists and locals when I decided to visit with my friend and my mother. However‚ looking back on my experience‚ visiting such a place is something you should do alone because it allows you to appreciate all of the pieces of art without the limitations of bringing someone along with you.

of those things I always thought I wouldn’t really understand. As a kid‚ I always wanted to draw but I soon realized how awful my cartoons were and gave up drawing‚ I did not really think art was for me.

Upon entering the Philadelphia Museum of Art‚ the immediate visual effect of the architecture and large columns peaked my interest‚ while shifting my view towards the seven different exhibits. After analyzing the map to choose a section to start‚ the closest was American Art. This wing featured galleries featuring Philadelphia realist painter Thomas Eakins. The dark nature of the paintings was accented by dim museum lighting‚ adding to the effect of an electricity-deprived society. Haunting paintings

Art is in the eye of the beholder. One person may like something while someone else may see it in a different way. While visiting the Appleton Museum‚ I got in touch with my artist side. European artwork dating back 600 years ago often resembles the Mona Lisa‚ Attributed to Berardino (portrait of a woman).

I firmly believe that the point of visiting a museum is to educate one on how things once were in the past through its display of artifacts‚ exhibits‚ art‚ cultural objects‚ etc. Its purpose is to let you imagine what it was like during a time you were not apart of or‚ in some cases‚ allow you to look back at a time you were apart of when you were very young. The African-American Museum of Long Island did a great job at presenting some of the many African-American contributions to society. In addition
