Linda's experience at the Yale University Art Gallery and the Yale Center for British Art


Hello Everyone-


This weekend, my daughter and I went to both the Yale University Art Gallery and the Yale Center for British Art. We went on Saturday, which turned out to be a nice, sunny, but cold day, and spent about 2 hours at each place. This was my first time at the University Art Gallery, so I did not know what to expect. I was really impressed with the extensive collections of African and Asian Art. I plan on including a picture of one of my favorite masks on my blog. Since I had already been to the British Art Museum, I was looking forward to seeing all of the magnificent paintings. What impressed me the most was how large some of the paintings are!! After spending the day at the museums, we had lunch at one of the many Thai restaurants in downtown New Haven. It was a great day!
