I have carefully curated a list of the Top 10 Works of Art using multiple sources, including professional art historians, to give you a museum blitz that you won't forget. Art and Art History are one of my passions and I am excited to share this with you. I love visiting New York City and I love it even more when I can share it with you!

If you're pressed for time, but STILL WANT TO SEE ONE OF THE GREATEST MUSEUMS IN THE WORLD and GET THE MOST OUT OF IT . . . LOOK NO FURTHER!!

(please forgive the sound in some sections, it was difficult because I had to talk quietly :)

  • Thank you taking time and shooting this video! I wish the art will be thought in all colleges to bring the greatness of the past to life, specially the works of Impressionism. It will make the world a much better place for young adult and for all of us instead of spending numerous hours on images and topics that are NOT fulfilling the young hearts. Great museum! Thank you again and again! Heart warming video!!!

    I was a little surprised by number 10's inclusion, but one of her paintings at the Legion of Honor in San Francisco is my favorite at that museum. One might think that Socrates' last words would be something profound, but I heard that they were "Does this taste funny to you?"

    Thank you for your video, it was very enjoyable. I would have liked a bit more explanation of each piece to gain a deeper appreciation.
  • @youtuber9046
    Great video thank you for this! I’m surprised you were able to make this as security usually harasses anyone recording video. Very well made video and beautiful art.
  • @DuShaneTony
    Love this. Went there for the first time in April and plan on going again when I visit in October.

    Well, my number one is Madame X by Sargent which has such a fascinating history to it, that scandalized Paris and nearly destroyed his burgeoning career and ruined the reputation of the subject.

    The best museum in "the world"~!? 00:05 Maybe, I'm a long time hard core museum lover and a native Manhattanite. The Met is my "first" love, which it inspired me to go to other amazing museums around the world, included The Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Le Louvre is way much bigger than the Met. For an example, at the left hand entrance of the Met/The Great Hall behind Senwosret II Pharos statue, the Egyptian section have a good collections of the "king/Queen" artifacts. But if you would like to personally "meet" the entire Egyptian royal courts, you just have to go to Cairo. In the Met, you'll find a huge "one artifact" Sarcophagus of Harkhebit. Where in Cairo, you'll find multiple of these amazing in perfection sarcophagus lying down and/or standing throughout the Egyptian Museum.
  • I was surprised the first time I visited the Met the cashier asked me how much I wanted to pay, even though I wasn't an NYC resident.
  • @jasonkwatkins
    Correction: There are more than a dozen Raphael paintings in America.
  • If I heard you correctly you said that was the only Raphael in the US. Not so. The National Gallery of Art in Washington has atleast three. Otherwise very nice.
  • @Chairman639
    I'm surprised the museum doesn't put up barriers to keep people from touching or damaging the art. A security person can only do so much!
  • @tonylarussa4046
    You mean the top 10 according to you. I am surprised you were allowed to video. I wasn't when I was there last, several years ago. Your friend has lived in every borough except the Bronx and Staten Island. That is the funniest thing I have heard in ages!! The View of Toledo by El Greco should not be in the Lehman Wing.
