No other museum covers the history of humanity and its achievements as thoroughly as The Metropolitan Museum of Art. In 24 half-hour lectures, illustrated with more than 400 works of art, Professor Richard Brettell introduces you to virtually every department at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Each department is a museum unto its own, representing one of the world’s finest collections in its field. The first floor alone houses Greek and Roman Art; Egyptian Art; Arts of Africa, Oceania, and the Americas; Arms and Armor; European Sculpture and Decorative Arts; Modern Art; and the Robert Lehman Collection. The course is truly a user-friendly guide to a mammoth institution that has amassed astonishing treasures.

Excellent
We are working our way through the lectures and are loving the course so far. A really good survey of the museum and of art in general. If you want a complete survey of art history you may want to look elsewhere but as far as getting ready for a big trip to the Met, this video course is great.

AN ART WORLD DVD LIBRARY CLASSIC
This is an enjoyable educational resource that can be accessed repeatedly and it never gets old; you’ll always pick up on some new fact(s) that you missed in earlier playings of this dvd lecture course. Spend the money and reap the benefits for years to come!

Missing Part 1
Nowhere in the description of this item did I see that this is just Part 2 of the Met Museum. A huge letdown.

This was great! A thorough journey through an art museum
This was great! A thorough journey through an art museum. I loved having the experience of just a few select pieces of art from each section of the museum. And his suggestion on how to visit a museum is really useful.
