PhotoHunt: CURVED



Home for two million pieces of art spanning past five thousand years of humanity is the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. This almost-120-year-old building, itself a masterpiece, has two million square feet of cavernous halls and intimate spaces that complement perfectly the Monets and the mummies residing within them.

1000 Fifth Avenue at 82nd Street
New York, New York 10028-0198
