Details

At The Met, every turn reveals another masterpiece! See Washington Crossing the Delaware, a dramatic portrayal of America’s fight for independence. Stand before Van Gogh’s Self-Portrait with a Straw Hat and feel the intensity of his swirling brushstrokes. Admire the quiet beauty of Vermeer’s paintings, the movement of Degas’ The Dance Class, and the vivid colors of Seurat’s A Sunday on La Grande Jatte.

Beyond its renowned paintings, The Met offers a journey through civilizations. Walk through the Temple of Dendur, an ancient Egyptian monument in the heart of New York City. Marvel at the gleaming armor of King Henry VIII and the Japanese samurai, and be transported into 1700s France as you step into the elegant French period rooms.

By the end of this tour, you’ll have traveled across centuries and continents, discovering some of the greatest works of art ever created—all within the walls of The Met.
