| The Kreeger Museum is in David and Carmen Kreeger's former home. It's got
an unusual design for a house, more "modern architecture" than it usually
used in recently built houses.
| A panorama of the large back patio, now used to display sculptures.
| I thought the panorama came out badly so I took a panoramic video of the
same space. It's clearer.
| The sunken courtyard with its fountain/pool adjacent to the patio.

| Aristide Maillol's sculpture Pomona, cast. I've seen another
sculpture very much like it but I can't recall where. I wish I could.
| A sample panorama of a typical impressionist room in the museum.
| This vertical panorama has three items worth noting. I like Philip Wofford's
painting Equinox which hangs above a grand, bronze staircase. The
railing (a.k.a. polished screen) by Edward Meshekoff also has a painterly
look. Finally, there's a light, floating Calder mobile at the bottom of the
picture.
| A panoramic video of the lovely, leafy, skylit, interior courtyard (if
that's what one calls it).

| Some paintings in this room have wonderful palettes. This is a panorama.

I recognized the scene in Pissaro's The Tuileries Garden.
| Picasso's Artist & Model (a.k.a. The Painter as a Musketeer and
His Model) feels more playful than I'm used to.
| A panorama of the big Miro exhibit.

|
| A panorama of the sculpture garden. Notice in the distance even the
tennis-court-like thing is art.

We saw rows of English cottages near the intersection of Foxhall Rd. &
Reservoir Rd. Apologies for the blurring; this picture was taken from
a moving bus.
