I lived in Washington, DC for six years and every time I needed to relax I went directly to the National Gallery of Art. It has so many wonderful sculptures, paintings and etchings...They recently made the leap and now consider photography art so they have a special section just for photography which I appreciate (since I am also a photographer).... more

All the things that make the NGOA so wonderful - also may limit its reach to the common tourist. By American Art Museum standards - it is huge. A good slow study of the countless galleries could easily consume a day. Masterpiece after masterpiece lines the wall - for the average tourist - it can be an overload. My experience... more

The museums shop... more
