The Metropolitan Museum of Art – The Met Fifth Avenue – New York

Images of The Metropolitan Museum of Art – The Met Fifth Avenue – Southern New York, taken in May 2022.

This was definitely a ‘bucket list’ item for me. First and foremost, I am a huge Impressionist fan having gotten hooked on the genre way back when I was in the Army and visited the Louvre in Paris on a long weekend. So, no trip to New York City would be complete without visiting The Met Fifth Avenue; one of the greatest museums on earth.

Since I knew I would never be able to get to everything in a single day, prior to setting out on my Uber trip to The Met I sat down and made a list of the works I wanted to make sure I was able to see. Also on the list were the Greek and Roman galleries. The images in this gallery reflect my list, with some additional pieces I viewed along the way.

I tried to reproduce the works of art as closely to the original as possible; my apologies to the artists and all art historians.
