SGUARDI DAL PASSATO 

A LOOK FROM THE PAST

di Nicoletta Galante

 

Un piovoso giorno di primavera, una macchina digitale... impressioni al  Museum of Fine Arts (MFA) di Boston e al Arthur M. Sackler Museum di Cambridge, MA - USA. 
Due musei da non perdere, soprattutto per poterne ammirare le notevoli collezioni di arte orientale.

 

A rainy day, a digital camera ... and a visit to the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and to Arthur M. Sackler Museum, Cambridge, MA - USA
