Item Description
4 admission passes to the Isabella Steward Gardner Museum.
Construction of Isabella’s museum began in 1899, and was completed in late 1901. She moved into the private fourth-floor living quarters and devoted herself to personally arranging works of art in the historic galleries on the first three floors. In 1901 and 1902, Isabella installed her collection of paintings, sculptures, tapestries, furniture, manuscripts, rare books, and decorative arts. She continued to acquire works and change the installations for the rest of her life.
"The Gardner’s real facades are the four sides of the atrium… And these mottled indoor facades are washed by sunlight that is modulated… in such a way that it often resembles light reflected off water, as it would be in Venice."
