About Baltimore Museum of Art

The Baltimore Museum of Art fills a neoclassical John Russell Pope building that opened in 1929 and holds about 95,000 objects. Its heart is the Cone Collection, gathered by sisters Claribel and Etta Cone, and the museum owns more than 1,000 works by Henri Matisse alongside Picasso, Van Gogh and Cezanne. Outside, two landscaped gardens show 20th-century sculpture. You reserve a general admission ticket online or at the Welcome Desk before entering the galleries.
