Lonely Planet review

Property of multibillionaire businessman Carlos Slim and named after his late wife, the Soumaya museum houses one of the world's three major collections - 70 pieces - of the sculpture of Frenchman Auguste Rodin (1840-1917). Located inside the Plaza Loreto shopping mall, it also possesses work by Rodin's contemporaries Degas, Matisse, Renoir and Daumier, collections of Mexican portraiture and colonial art, and murals by Rufino Tamayo, besides staging major temporary exhibitions.
