About
The Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, Texas is widely considered to house one of the finest small art collections in the world, assembled with the principle that quality surpasses quantity. Its collection of approximately 350 works — a deliberate limit — includes masterworks by Michelangelo, Rembrandt, Velázquez, Poussin, Cézanne, Picasso, and Matisse. Louis Kahn's 1972 building, with its signature vaulted skylights, is considered one of the greatest museum buildings of the 20th century.
