Melbourne: NGV International

2024年2月7日, オーストラリア ⋅ ⛅ 73 °F

Today we balanced road trip prep work with sightseeing.

After breakfast, Mui headed out to do some shopping … groceries for home-cooked meals to take on the road. After he got back, we went off to have fun … leaving the actual cooking for this afternoon.

When Regatta called on Melbourne in January, we visited the Melbourne Museum. We spent so much time there that we didn’t get to the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV) then. So, that was our priority today.

Founded in 1861, NGV is Australia’s oldest art museum. It also has the distinction of being the most visited one. The museum consists of two sites. The one we went to today is NGV: International … on St Kilda Road. We would have gone to the Ian Potter Center: NGV Australia, too. But we ran out of steam … and time.

In this building are the museum’s European, Asian, Oceanic, and American art collections.

We found a lot that pleased our eye. And a lot that left us scratching our heads.もっと詳しく
