    A Treasure

    rogersjk recommends this,

    The Barnes Collection will be moving to Philadelphia's Benjamin Franklin Parkway in 2012, so this is the time to see it in its original site. The art is breathtaking, the display a bit odd and cluttered, but the overall affect is beautiful. You need to make reservations in advance, so be sure to call or submit a request on-line before you head out to Merion, PA. There's a great discount coupon on this site: http://www.parkwaymuseumsdistrict.org.
