Visit to the National Museum of Art West

I am in Washington DC to visit my daugther and grandkids for the Easter Holiday. I took this opportunity to visit the National Museum of Art West. They have a wing dedicated to Sulptures most of which are either Bronze or Marble but there are some in Wax or clay. I took as many photos as I could until the battery in my camera went dead. Below are some of the sculputures that impressed me the most.

Others (human form) I will not post because of the sensitive nature (although there many children viewing the sculptures with their parents -including my grandson who accompanied my wife and myself).

Thanks for the pics ragiarn. Useful and instructive. I think it's good to look at stuff that, although I might not attempt I can get good ideas from.
