New Orleans Museum of Art

Description

The New Orleans Museum of Art is the city's oldest fine arts institution. It was opened in 1911 after a gift to the City Park Commission from Isaac Delgado, a sugar broker and Jamaican immigrant. Today the museum has a magnificent permanent collection of more than 40,000 objects, valued in excess of $200 million. The collection includes pre-Columbian and Native American ethnographic art, 16th- through 20th-century European paintings, early American art, Asian art, and one of the six largest decorative glass collections in the United States. The museum recently opened the Sculpture Garden with 55 sculptures by artists from around the world. Guests can visit the Courtyard Cafe and the Museum Shop.
