Barnes Foundation (Benjamin Franklin Parkway)

The Barnes Foundation, moved to a purpose-built building on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in 2012, holds one of the world's largest collections of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, and early Modern paintings assembled by Dr. Albert C. Barnes. The museum's dense, idiosyncratic installation style-mixing paintings, furniture, and decorative arts-draws frequent photography and discussion in art media and on social platforms. The building and collection attract national and international visitors and are commonly featured in visual coverage of Philadelphia's cultural institutions.
