New York Culture: The Brooklyn Museum of Art is the second largest in the five boroughs, and the permanent collection here boasts more than one and a half million pieces running the gamut from contemporary art installations to their famous Ancient Egyptian collection.
The 560,000-square-foot, Beaux-Arts building is the anchor of parks and garden complex that also features the Brooklyn Botanic Garden and the Prospect Park Zoo. The Brooklyn Museum of Art has a well-developed collection of American art, with many pieces that visitors will recognize from their school-day textbooks. |
