Metropolitan Museum of Art

METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART
NYC STAYCATION 2015

 I took my mama to the MET today Can yall believe she's never been to the MET?!  Well thats pretty common.  So many times we dont take advantage of the cities we live in and visit famous landmarks or the museums.  Often time we think its just not affordable but i have good news, the Metropolitan Museum of Art is based on donations.  You give what you can, art should be available to everyone!

You guys this museum is huge.  Its located on 85 on 5th ave.  Take the 4,5 or 6 to 86th street and walk.  Because i went with my mom, she gets tired quickly, we mostly kept it to the first floor and the American wing.  The following photos are from those areas...

When you enter the museum, to the right you will find the Egyptian section and to the left Greek and Roman. 

American Wing Arms and Armor

These are the actual interiors of real homes from different centuries.  The first three photos below are from the 16th century.  Everything was so small back then.

Leave it to me to find a tiny kitty in a large painting.  MEOW

You guys! no photos please! oops pics are not allowed in special exhibitions like the Van Gogh Irises and Roses.  There were like 4-5 paintings my mom was NOT impressed.  She said "you can do better!"  Gasp! 

Peek-a-boo i see you!

Religious section i dont know the official name
