TripAdvisor’s top museum in the world for two years now, the Metropolitan Museum of Art is America’s largest, as TripAdvisor says, “home to more than two million works that span more than two million square feet” including “can’t-miss works from Rembrandt, Degas, van Gogh, Renoir, Manet, Monet, Picasso and more.” Go now and you can see Transitional Object (PsychoBarn) by Cornelia Parker, which is what it sounds like

The Metropolitan Museum of Art of New York City, colloquially "the Met", is the largest art museum in the United States. With 6,479,548 visitors to its three locations in 2019, it was the fourth most visited art museum in the world. Its permanent collection contains over two million works, divided among 17 curatorial departments. The main building at 1000 Fifth Avenue, along the Museum Mile on the eastern edge of Central Park in Manhattan's Upper East Side, is by area one of the world's largest art galleries. A much smaller second location, The Cloisters at Fort Tryon Park in Upper Manhattan, contains an extensive collection of art, architecture, and artifacts from medieval Europe. On March 18, 2016, the museum opened the Met Breuer museum along Madison Avenue on the Upper East Side; it extends the museum's modern and contemporary art program
