Kimbell Art Museum presents Botticelli to Braque

The Kimbell Art Museum is a gem. Their current big exhibit is Botticelli to Braque - Masterpieces from the National Galleries of Scotland. Fifty-five paintings span over five hundred years. You will enjoy the variety and the presentation.

Botticelli's Virgin Adoring the Sleeping Child (1490) gleams. Some of my favorites are a John Singer Sargent portrait, along with landscapes from Monet, Pissarro, and Cezanne. Other portraits from Rembrandt and Vermeer are breathtaking.

Take an hour and stroll around an art museum. Enrich your eyes.

    Excellent advice. I live quite close to a gallery but haven't been there for years.

      glad I could inspire. So often we ignore our "neighborhood", and then shocked when places go out of business. Enjoy!

    I love the art museum we have here. I need to go again sometime soon because they quite often have new exhibits.
