Last weekend Tommy and I spent most of the day at the Harvard (pronounced "hah-vahd") Art Museum. What a delight! We got to see the best of all three exhibits. Of course it was all wonderful, but my favorite was the last room upstairs. THE most famous art I've ever seen in one room in my entire life!
I am surprised we could take pictures of most of the pieces.
Self portrait by Van Gogh.
Lichtenstein! always a favorite.
The original "moleskine".
Monet's Pear Tree
One of Tommy's favorites...don't remember who did this one.
The Buddah Room - also a favorite.
The last room, full of Van Gogh and Degas and Monet and Picasso and Matisse and more, was so breathtaking. All the pieces in that room were donated by ONE person! Yes, all of that wonderful art was in one house. It was donated to Harvard with one rule, that it all must remain in the same room at all times.
If you get a chance it's worth a visit. Definitely. And it's only $9! ;)
Until next time, this is Jen signing off...
