Fogg Museum of Art

The Fogg Art Museum is the oldest of Harvard University's art museums. It covers the history of western art from the Middle Ages to the present. It is housed in an Italian Renaissance style building designed by Richard Morris Hunt and has been open to the public since 1895, and is open every day apart from national holidays. Its main areas of strength are Italian early Renaissance, British pre-Raphaelites, and nineteenth-century French art. It includes the Wertheim Collection of Impressionist and post-Impressionist works and the Boston area's most important collection of Picasso's work.
