Description of Norton Simon Museum
The Norton Simon Museum, located in Pasadena, California, is known around the world as one of the most remarkable private art collections ever assembled. Over 1,000 works are regularly on view at the Museum in a tranquil environment of 38 galleries and a sculpture garden. The Museum features a particularly celebrated impressionist and post-impressionist collection, with paintings by Manet, Renoir, Monet, Degas, Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec and Cézanne. In addition, there are 20th century works by Picasso, Braque, Matisse, Klee, Kandinsky and the German expressionists. Complementing the Western art is an outstanding collection of Asian sculpture from India and Southeast Asia spanning a period of 2000 years. Films are shown daily in the Norton Simon Museum Theater.
