Museum of Fine Arts


 This is Boston's most impressive museum.  They could have more than the Metropolitan in NYC.  I think they have just as much money.  They just built a 4-story "addition" that is huge.  The floors are by century.  The bottom floor is the 16th century, the next floor is 17th century, etc.  Each floor has period wallpaper and furnishings of that period.















































There are 4 restaurants.  This is one of them.













This is the oculus in the center dome.  The main building was finished in 1909.
















This is a Chihuly.  He's the glass artist from Tacoma.

















There's lots of sailing ships.  In fact, the Tall Ships are here right now.  They arrived in time for the 4th of July.











Guess who?
















This is an example of a room with period wallpaper, etc.













A nice day bed.
