While I did not plan to visit Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts, I received free tickets to go, and so I took the opportunity. Similar to most destinations in Boston, I took the subway to get there, which is typically the fastest method that avoids all the traffic and stoplights. At first glance, the building’ exterior gave me an impression not of extravagance or modern design, but rather a sense of history, like classical art. For me, the most noticeable feature at the entrance was the four columns that are reminiscent of ancient Greek architecture. While I did not know it at the time, I learned from this architecture class that those were Ionic columns with the “rolled-up” elements at the top. Once entering, there is a ticketing area followed by an area where personal bags are collected, probably for security purposes and theft prevention. After that, it’s mostly just rooms and rooms of artwork and sculpture. I spent several hours walking around checking out the seemingly endless number of exhibits, and it was overall a positive memory for me.
