I have to admit: my experience in the gallery was not very extensive. Well, so it didn’t exist before, except with a friend who dragged me to this place, I didn’t expect much from this trip. :> But her instinct is right. Barnes is an art gallery where even a "normal person" can get a lot out of a few hours of wandering. The layout and display made things much more interesting than I thought, and made me feel like I not only had a great time, but learned more art lessons that afternoon than I learned throughout the two universities! I couldn’t compare it to anyone else, but it’s hard to imagine a place better than Barnes!
