We enjoyed an alfresco lunch
|
in Giverny surroundings.
|
We viewed selected portions of the Western Art collection ...
|
|
|
and the Indian Art Collection.
|
Some who been in Phoenix when the Phillips Collection was there initially had
different ideas about what "Western" and "Indian" art included.
|
Later that afternoon we arrived at the Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens.
|
We toured their famed desert garden
|
and the Japanese Garden. The unseasonable cherry blossoms were in preparation for filming of
Memoirs of a Geisha.
|
Although we also toured the Huntington Mansion and Gallery of British Art, we were only permitted to
photograph in the Steele Gallery of American Art.
