New Art At Fort Worth's Kimbell Art Museum In Fort Worth

The Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth has a new acquisition that will be revealed on Friday. "The Torment of Saint Anthony" is Michelangelo's first known painting. Experts say he painted it in 1487-88 when he was 12 or 13 years old.

The Fort Worth Star-Telegram posted a column by an art fan that I thought was interesting. Click the picture above to read the article and then go to the Kimbell to see the painting. It goes on display in the permanent collection September 26th.
I’m no art expert, but I do love great art. I consider the Kimbell and the other museums in Fort Worth and Dallas to be possibly the best reason for living here.
