Natural History Museum and the National Art Museum

Our time in Washington was running out, so Bob and I divided up.  I went to the National Art Museum and he headed to the Natural History Museum.


He saw....

Dinosaurs !!


And life sizes animals.


Gems.


And butterflies.


I walked through the sculpture museum.




On to the entrance of National Museum of Art.



I saw an exhibit on Serge Diaghilev, he was a promoter of ballets in Europe.  He talked Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Coco Channel and others to design costumes and backdrops for the ballets.
No pictures allowed but it was an amazing exhibit.


Even the cafe had a beautiful wall of water.


We ended our afternoon having lunch at the cafe in the Sculpture Museum.
