Great Art!: This museum in my opnion is highly underestimated...with a really fine collection of artwork and changing exhibits, a movie theatre for independent films, and a wonderful museum library it is a must see for anyone who visits Boston!
I can be there the whole day...: Well, first of all, I think the size of the museum is just right: not too large, not too small. Secondly, it has quite a few collection of Monet, one of my favorites. When I was a master's degree student in Boston, they happened to have a special Exhibition on Monet in which I understand many more was brought in for the purpose. I was ecstatic! And I think the people there work hard to keep the museum a dynamic, exciting place to be. Always new things to learn. Even the shop and the restaraunt was nice. I don't remember what I like to eat there but, like I say, it must have been pleasant enough that I had the feeling I can spend the whole day there.... Do drop by if you find yourself in Boston! :)
