I could not find the membership table inside – the museum is being renovated so is a little disordered but I was very confused that the ticket guy didn’t want my money. So Titian’s naked ladies will have to wait until my next visit.
My favorites were the Sargents and his peers- Late 19th Century American. Such sharp and shining work. In the past I have discounted him because he’s from Massachusetts, I thought maybe that’s why we liked him. But in fact he’s really good.
There is a creepy buddha gallery made at the turn of the 20th century to be an appropriate home for the appropriated buddhas.
Outside of that there were these beautiful large screen paintings: Showa Sophistication, Japan in the 1930s

Hi Emily! Your post makes me feel sorry I didn’t go to the museum yesterday. And the man didn’t want your money because Wednesday evenings are free!
