Here in Southeastern PA, the Barnes Foundation Museum (largest collection of Renoir paintings stateside) will most to a location downtown near the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Many fought this decision, but the museum is is too costly to upkeep; they are hoping that more tourists find their way when it's downtown. Pity. The original grounds are wooded and glorious; and it was Albert Barnes' wish that it always remain there, adjacent to his home. Alas, this will not be the case. I mention this because not only is it the closing of a museum, but because there are many African Artifacts placed amongst the art treasure originals, that may be of interest to some viewers of this forum. A little off topic; I apologize for that.
