This is a must do. It is really a beautiful setting and a beautiful museam. Be sure to stop for a coffee at the cafe.

This is a relaxing environment in which to appreciate an eclectic collection of international artists. Go during the week and avoid the crowds.

The Phillips is a private museum located near Embassy Row. It houses one of the finest paintings in the world, Renoir's The Boating Party. The new part honors the integrity of the original old mansion and you can go from new to old very easily. This is a must museum

All though there is little modren art there now, when it opened in the 1920's the art we know today as masterpieces were then considered to be advante gard. This gallery is know for Renoir's Luncheon of the Boating Party.

Very nice collection. Enjoyed seeing the Renoir , Cezanne, and Sisley paintings. The special exhibit by Jeanne Silverthorne is well worth seeing- very innovative.

Whenever I am in DC, I make sure and stop at the Phillips Collection at least once. This small museum contains works from Degas to Rothko, all beautifully arranged. If you enjoy art, especially works from the first half of the 20th century, the Phillips should not be missed.

Beautiful paintings in a nice setting. It was one of the museums we visited on Museum Day. I always like to go and see the Boating Party picture.

Small but excellent permanent collection and special exhibits, at low entrance price. Beautiful building and location.
