Museums, like theaters and libraries, are a means to freedom. Here, we can move out of our personal anxieties and disappointments into the vast and stable world of human creativity. Here are displayed for us-to delight and entertain us-the most beautiful objects that our race ever fashioned: objects from all cultures and all centuries..To look-as opposed to merely seeing-takes time and concentration. It is most richly rewarded. Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Art Institute of chicago, Cleveland Museum of Art, Kimbell Art Museum, Fort Worth, Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Beautiful Color Pictures Throughout.
