Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes (Buenos Aires)

 This is Buenos Aries Museum of fine art. It contains European and international are for the middle ages to the 20 th century.    They have pieces be Manet, Tolouse-Latrec, Monet, Cezanne  along with room of De Goya,. 

It seemed to me that the collection of  the above artists was maybe their lesser pieces.  I can recognise a Monet, a Degas, Tolouse-Latrecc etc. but none of them had that wow factor that I was accustom to at the other museums.

My orientation to art is Europe such as the French  museums  (eg Louvre)' Italian museums(e.g Uffizi), British museums (the National Gallery) and then the U.S. (de Young, the Getty)  so it might not be a fair comparison.  My interest in art really is more tourism and a fsri amount of Bill Fredlund's class.  I am not art expert but it was interesting observation.  Additonally, I would come upon a piece of art and guess the artist but it would be a Latin artist.  I couldn't interpret if it was a Spanish artist or a Latin American artist but I would recognise 'the school of'. For example I would swear a piece was a Caravaggio or an impressionist and it  would be a Latin artist.  So my guess is that the ' school of' was not limited to Europeans and a few Americans

 This room took my breathe away, both were parents holding their dead sons.  The painting is Bougereau, the sculpture, I did not recognise

this little wooden medieval Saint had pig.  My research found this is St. Anthony the great, patron saint of pigs!
