  10. This is beautiful - a museum, in my mind, should have a classical feel. The art, stained glass and dome are some of the things that add that look. Great museum and pics!

  15. Ok, I'm stumped. Where/what is the Smithsonian Art museum West? It looks like the national gallery in DC. . . Are you over in my part of the world!?!

    1. Hi Cindy. Now I'm stumped as well. I'm sure that's what the signage indicated, and yes, I was in D.C. to take these photos. These were all take n there.

  17. I wonder what's more beautiful - the architecture or the art? I'm glad you included photos that capture the beauty of the building. I would love to take my kids to D.C. I went several times when I lived in the States and once with my South African husband - before we had kids. Thanks for always hosting a great hop!
