The Metropolitan Museum possesses one of the greatest, and largest, collections of art in the world; it is a cherished New York institution and a must see for any visitor. Banners above the Met?s Fifth Avenue entrance herald the current attractions ? there are always a few exhibitions on-the-go displaying masterpieces from around the world alongside the Metropolitan?s own collection. The highlights of the permanent collection are numerous ? American collectors having had the foresight, and cash, to buy up a large number of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces from Europeans at the end of the 19th century. The Metropolitan Museum's collection now contains more than two million works of art from all points of the compass, from ancient through modern times, including great works by Van Gogh, Renoir, Monet and Cézanne to rival any gallery in the world.
