A diminutive, but impactful gem in the new @FolkArtMuseum exhibit "Made in NYC: the Business of Folk Art," this rare tattoo pattern book, 1873-1910, is actually made on water-proof pages. You can imagine it flung in some salty old sea dog's rucksack #AFAMmadeinNYC #ITweetMuseums
...and if you come to @MuseeLouvre at night, your experience of I.M. Pei's once controversial 1989 pyramid is especially dynamic and visually heightened. #ITweetMuseums #IMPei #LouvrePyramid
Once again, for those in the back, the best @MuseeLouvre tip is to visit on the nights the museum is open until 21:45. Especially the last hour. Blissful peace. No crowds. Michelangelo, Rebellious Slave & Dying Slave, 1513-14. #ITweetMuseums #Michelangelo
I was interested in the incised drawing Of the arms and hands on this sculpture and how it blended 2D with 3D. Ossip Zadkine, Torse de Femme, 1961. #ITweetMuseums #OssipZadkine
#JeanJacquesHenner's Adam and Eve Discovering the Body of Abel, 1858 won him the Grand Prix de Rome, which permitted him a five-year sojourn in the Eternal City. #ITweetMuseums
Celebrating #MuseumSelfie Day here @nyhistory with Mark Gagnon's whimsical interpretation of some of my favorite collection objects. These figures were part of the 2017 holiday window display at NYC'S famed Bergdorf Goodman and are currently featured at the museum. #ITweetMuseums
I'm a bit of a sucker for decorative tile work, and these Moorish-inspired stunners by the Low Art Tile Works company in the Smoking Room of the @DriehausMuseum are definitely home decor goal-worthy. (At least they were during the Gilded Age.) #ITweetMuseums #DriehausMuseum
Learned that #EugeneDelacroix rarely exhibited his oil sketches in public, but he did show this undulating Christ on the Cross, 1845 in a prominent exhibit in Paris. I loved seeing it here, next to the fully developed canvas from 1846. (Why I love retrospectives.) #ITweetMuseums
I went to experience the "Hilma af Klint: Paintings for the Future" exhibition at @Guggenheim and was struck at how mesmerized visitors were. The spiraling building is what the artist had always imagined for the display of these spiritual paintings. #ITweetMuseums #HilmaAfKlint
#Museum30 Day 13: food. Last summer at @mnbaq, I randomly stumbled upon #DavidAltmejd, The Flux and the Puddle, 2014. This ferocious, shrieking pineapple couple was just one of the surprising details in the room-sized installation that I discovered. #ITweetMuseums
