Met Galleries with Latin Art

Greek and Roman Art

The Greek and Roman Art gallery contains art from Italy and from the height of the Roman expansion around the Mediterranean. I always thought the Romans copied Greek culture. Actually, they absorbed the culture  of Greek settlers in the shoe of Italy and Sicily. Migration can be a very good thing.

Arts of Africa, Oceania, and the Americas

The Arts of Africa, Oceania, and the Americas gallery displays art by Native Americans.

Modern And Contemporary Art

The Modern and Contemporary Art gallery displays masterworks from when Paris was the global center of art.

European Sculpture and Decorative Arts

The European Sculpture and Decorative Arts gallery displays large-scale European sculptures and some decorative arts from Latin America.

Robert Lehman Collection

The Robert Lehman Collection contains European art and decorative objects including Italian Maiolica glass.

Medieval Art

The Medieval Art gallery surveys European art from the fall of Rome to the Renaissance.

Arms and Armor

The Arms and Armor gallery displays European armor.
