I don't see the Washington State Museum in Olympia on the list
Been to the Vatican. Don’t give a shit about the rest.
I've been to the Lourve and Getty
Louvre, Orsay, Prado and National Gallery of Art, obvs
Yella with another shot at the Dutch by leaving the Van Gogh and Rijksmuseum off, but I am not sure which others I would remove, seeing as how I haven't been to them
Chicago and DC.
Don't know much about art, don't care. Car museums are far more interesting.
I've also been to the British Museum before they gave most of the stuff back from whence it came
They had a great Egyptian wing
Louvre, Orsay, Uffizi…
@PurpleBaze was sexting me sculpted marble dick picks recently, so thought an art pole was merited.
For me…
Lourvre
Uffizi
D'Orsay
Met in NYC
Getty (weird choice because it's more about the building vs the art)
And National Gallery in London. I don't give AF what @ukdawg says. London is awesome and I could spend a few weeks there a year goofing off.
State history museum Tacoma is glorious.
I'd put the Rijksmuseum, Hermitage, and Kunsthistorischesmuseum on the list before anything in Chicago or the fucking Getty
A mere oversight I'm sure
Louvre
Musee d'Orsay
J.Paul Getty Center
I'm not a museum type of guym, but since I was in Firenze, I had to check out David's dick (no homo).
I like to call it Firenze; IWILTD.
There are multiple David dicks in Florence.
I’ve seen ‘em both.
One can imagine a young @DerekJohnson sipping Coca Cola in a small jazz club on a dirty rainy night on the Left Bank.
Yeah, I pulled this off a top 10 list from a Reuters piece and it looked mostly right so I went with it.
But, yes, those you mention are more deserving than a couple here- e.g., Getty.
St. Peterburg/Moscow would be my top bucket list trip, but I reckon it will never happen in my lifetime. Those Ruskies have had too many centuries of national trauma to be a relatively normal state.
I assume the second one here translates in English to "Kunt Historic Museum," right?
National Gallery in London is great, but the Portrait Gallery is the overlooked gem - don't sleep on the Portrait Gallery.
London is fine. I don't hate London. But given the choice of Metallica in Cardiff/Glasgow vs. London it was a no brainer - London is a PITA. BTW me and another family are on the Lux Aeterna platform. Boom.
In terms of museums - are we excluding antiquities? Like is your "art" defined as 1200AD - Present?
2000 years ago, some hero turned a piece of marble into a work of art. Go to the Naples Museum (Naples is Grade A shithole, but Naples Museum is Grade A must see - all the good shit from Pompeii, Herculaneum, and the Baths of Caracalla is in there).
This shit is Hustler, not Playboy, if you get my drift. Lost art…
