Boston's MFA has a new wing devoted to American art which has also opened up room in the rest of the place for other art. Wing is a weird name for this addition as it is embedded in the foot print of the museum but a picture of glass and light as you can see below. Here are views of it and a few close ups of some of my favorite paintings. I have been taking close ups to record the brush techniques, especially those of Sargent.
It's always interesting to see how many photographs you can take in a museum before security comes to confiscate the camera.

They actually allow non-flash photos at the MFA except for the special exhibits.
