Housed in a new (controversial) home, the Barnes collection boasts extensive holdings of Post-Impressionist and early Modern paintings, including extensive works by Renoir, Cézanne, Matisse, and Picasso to name a few. It is the ultimate example of what a collection can be. This is a must see and make sure you get tickets in advance.
