Cummer Museum I thought‚ "This is going to be boring. How can I write a paper on just art?" However‚ after my visit‚ I found there were more things to write about than I had imagined.

From various oil paintings and ancient sculptures to modern photography and ceramic figures. There was even a beautiful garden to enjoy. According to literature‚ the Cummer Museum is the

People who are an art lover‚ they’ll love and enjoy this museum. I know it must not be one of the art museum that is on the list of many people “to do list” once they land in New York City because it is not as popular as the Metropolitan Museum of Art. However‚ it is a better choice than the Metropolitan Museum because it is a remarkable way to spend an afternoon in an art museum and to view a variety of recognizable artists. The Frick Museum is a jewel. You’re allowed to wander around the Frick’s

Wayne Thiebaud paintings featured everyday scenes. His food services included pieces titles (Double Decker‚ BBQ’d Chickens‚ Cup of Coffee‚ Cottage Cheese Salad). He also had a beautiful landscape

From an early age‚ I have found Art fascinating. I believe Art disputes claims of humans being just boring biological machines. Art allows me to transform images in my mind into something tangible.

Museum Field Trip Last night I had an amazing experience. I toured museums in multiple States and on two Continents. This also happened to be the least expensive cultural experience of my life since it was done from the privacy of my own home. “How is that possible?” you may ask.

However‚ I’d like to inform and impress
