Chicago, United States
Art Institute of Chicago
One of the great American collections, with an Impressionist holding to rival Paris.
American Gothic, Nighthawks and A Sunday on La Grande Jatte hang within a few minutes of each other. The Thorne Miniature Rooms — sixty-eight tiny, perfectly furnished interiors — are the collection people talk about afterwards.
Opening hours and prices change regularly — always check the museum’s own site before you travel.
