Join us for a day of artistic discovery at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. This study day allows time for you to make the most of your visit to this world-class Museum.

Upon arrival our group can self-guide the newly opened Raphael: Sublime Poetry, featuring the artistic process of one of history’s most beloved and influential artists. This exhibition is the first comprehensive exhibition on Raphael in the United States, bringing together more than 200 of the artist’s greatest masterpieces and rarely seen treasures to illuminate the brilliance of Raphael’s extraordinary creativity. A true titan of the Italian Renaissance, Raffaello di Giovanni Santi (1483–1520)—better known as Raphael—matched ambition with lyricism to create works with both intellectual heft and emotional depth. In his short life of only 37 years, he achieved such profound success as a painter, designer, and architect that he was regarded as the pinnacle of artistic perfection for centuries after his death.

In the afternoon, we have a scheduled guided tour of the American Wing.

Bus departs from and returns to the Florence Griswold in Old Lyme with one additional pick-up location in Madison, CT. Lunch is on your own.
