The impeccable architecture and the art that fills the museum. There has been one painting inpaticular that I always revisit every time I go. I could stare at for days. The splendor of the old Philips home is magnificent. You can tell how much Waite Philips loved architecture not only in his wonderful home he built for him…

According to Beard, the rules of looking are used to determine things like “our classification of artistic production, the language we use to discuss this production, and the value we choose to give it.” These rules really impact our understanding of art and literature.

1. Introduction Saturday, February 24th I walked into the St Petersburg Museum of Fine Arts for the first time.

In this essay, it will be further discuss on the question whether culture and the arts should be funded if they are not profitable. According to Edward Tylor, “culture is a complex whole which includes knowledge, belief, art, morals, law, custom, and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of society” (Tylor, 1889).
