I've visited this museum twice now and fell in love with it both times. It is right near the central plaza of Cuernavaca and is an absolute gem.

It does not feel like a museum but as the home it was. Robert Brady was obviously a very wealthy man and as an artist he had wonderful taste, so the home is exquisite. One room I would have avoided had I known, is the christ room. a bit gory for my taste. One of the staff who works inside,... More

What a wonderful place and excellent curator - I am sorry that I didn't spend more time learning about all the art - I was overwhelmed. The grounds are amazing and the house so beautiful. An excellent experience - don't miss it and take it all in.... More
