What are three current exhibits at the metropolitan museum of art?

With more than two million pieces in the collection, 2,200 of which are European paintings, it is difficult to say. A small sampling: 37 paintings by Monet, 21 oils by Cézanne, five paintings by Vermeer, Van Gogh's 'Self-Portrait with a Straw Hat' and paintings by Botticelli, El Greco and Raphael.

I've written a blog post (linked below) about which famous paintings at the Met are most often cited by 40 art historians and art history writers. While I wouldn't venture to declare these are THE most famous paintings there, this is a list of leading art paintings you'll want to be certain to see!

Enjoy your visit.
