Tuesday, June 18, 2013 As one of the largest museums in the United States, the Philadelphia Museum of Art invites visitors from around the world to explore its renowned collections, acclaimed special exhibitions, and enriching programs, both in person and online.
Also On View Now Through December 01, 2013 All Dressed Up: Fashions for Children and Their Families focuses on clothing from the late
eighteenth through mid-twentieth centuries, comparing and contrasting adults' apparel with
children’s smaller styles. Now Through July 14, 2013 Sean Scully’s paintings speak
eloquently to the history of
abstraction, engaging in a
passionate conversation with
the legacies of Abstract Expressionism
and Minimalism while
offering new models for the
continuing role of nonfigurative
art.In the Galleries Gallery 204, second floor A Medieval cloister was usually a space at the heart of a monastery where a variety of highly regulated events in the lives of members of the religious order took place. The Museum’s cloister, based on the design at Saint-Genis-des-Fontaines in southwestern France, and the rare Romanesque fountain at its center, afford visitors a space for quiet thought.  Gallery 290a, second floor In the 18th-century, virtually every European aristocratic family owned an Asian porcelain tea service decorated with its coat of arms. Due to the great number of British families who possessed these heraldic objects, Chinese and Japanese factories manufactured more porcelain for export to England than to any other European country. See an example here, and visit gallery 290a for several more. Most "Loved" Object
