Museum of Fine Arts by Claudio

Today we woke up really early to go to the Museum of Fine Arts.  Unfortunately it opens only at 10 am so we went to the Starbucks. We walked there because it is near the school.

They were very strict, because we couldn't take our bags with us. Then we met our guide and she took us upstairs to see French paintings by artists such as Claude Monnet, Edouard Manet, etc. She showed us different arts like impressionism, pointillism, etc. Then we went downstairs and she showed us the artist Pablo Picasso and his cubism style, with The Rape of a Sabine Woman. Finally the guide took us in a chamber, and gave us papers and pencils to do reproduce the cubism style like Pablo Picasso. We were doing that until we ate lunch at the museum cafeteria. So from 12.30 pm to 14.30 pm we had free time in the museum to see whatever we wanted. 

What I thought was the most interesting thing was the contemporary art, especially the Andy Warhol art because it was very special and also nice to see. However the museum is so big that you cannot visit the whole museum. I also liked the Roman sculptures, with the Cesare and Augusto bust.

Andy Warhol masterpiece.
