St Louis Art Museum

 The St Louis Art Museum is one of the finest in the world and is a 'Must See' if you are anywhere near St Louis Missouri. Its collection covers all types and styles - you are sure to find items of interest.

The main hall is most impressive

Contemporary Art Galleries 

This blending of traditional stained glass with an LCD television showing movement thru the glass was a fun blend of technologies



This blend of antique interiors with colorized videos was also an interesting blend of technologies

The entrance to the gift shop from the entry promenade was architecturally interesting

The entry promenade includes historical examples of architectural interest 





There are sections of the museum that cover the industrial arts. These are some of my favorite displays












Well done book matching of wood veneers is always of interest





























The Monuments Men included one of the future  directors of the museum



I included this as a resource for pronunciation of Indian Tribe names










Julie and I find this staircase one of particular architectural interest and great beauty


You've got to love the use of mirrors and infinity reflections











Such an elegant place to visit!
