You may have noticed we’ve been to many art museums during our travels. I was ready to skip the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts, but Doug thought we should go, so we did. It was a small museum but had a nice collection. I was pleasantly surprised by the porcelain and glass collections.
The museum’s founding goes back to 1911, growing to a collection of nearly 6,000 objects today. It has a particular focus in American Art of the 19th and 20th centuries. The museum has a sculpture garden on three acres, as well, but just as soon as we ventured outside it started to rain, and that was the end of that.
The cover photo is a Junket Dish, circa 1765-1770. It’s used to serve pudding, naturally.
