The museum (The Archer M. Huntington museum of Spanish Art) is absolutely breathtaking, can't wait for the expansion of the museum to be completed. The arts and letters museum, The Church of the Esperanza, and The Riviera Bldg. located at 157th St. and Riverside Drive, gives the entire complex and The Riviera Bldg. a must place to visit.
Didn’t know you could fit so much graffiti into such a small space.
I can’t express enough how thrilling it was to visit the Hispanic Society of America when I was in New York in 2015. I had known about the museum for awhile and knew it was special but until I took the long subway trip up there from Midtown, I wasn’t prepared for how magnificent a gem it is in the world of museums. The art collection is stupendous and the setting is equally arresting. I had the galleries to myself at certain periods and it was such a joy to get close to masterworks by Velasquez, Goya, Antonis Mor just to name a few. The building itself reminds one of Madrid‘s royal palace on the outside and the interior’s main two level gallery highlights old world craftsmanship with its architectural elements. Huntington gave to New York a wonderful treasure that is many times overlooked by visiting tourists. I highly recommend that if you are an art and museum lover that you visit The Hispanic Society of America when it reopens. I definitely plan to go back when I’m in New York.
We took our children here this morning to participate in a group kids session and had a great time. It was set up like an informal art class, right there in the museum itself. It reminded me of my art classes in my university days, except it was geared at young kids 10 and younger. The program directors, Cristina and Marta, were really fantastic.
I would recommend taking your kids here for one of these sessions if you can. The sesions are conducted in Spanish and are a great tool for the kids (and parents) to meet other families and gain education in Spanish.
Came for the amazing collection of Joaquin Sorrolla large scale canvases. It's like a holy experience to sit in front of these masterpieces. Stayed for the antiquities and the history and the great interpretive information. Don't miss Anna Hyatt Huntington's magnificent sculptures outside in the courtyard of this beautiful historic building. My favorite museum in NYC.
