You'll find works by world-class artists around every corner when you tour the Wadsworth Atheneum. More than just great paintings, there's sculpture, ancient artifacts, historic furniture, and beautiful objects. As the country's oldest public art museum, we boast an amazing depth and breadth of collections, representing many cultures and civilizations, a wide array of media and interests, and every major art movement. We're especially noted for our nineteenth-century Hudson River School collection of paintings (CURRENTLY TRAVELING AND NOT ON VIEW) depicting America's pristine natural beauty, our twentieth-century Surrealist masterpieces, our Renaissance holdings, and our collection of exemplary early-American furniture, once featured on PBS's "Antiques Roadshow." Whether you choose to view our permanent collections or a special exhibition, a visit is sure to impress. For a preview, click the links.
