Introduction

The American Art Museum is located next to the Portrait Gallery and becomes the next destination for people after visiting the latter. Outside the museum, there is a colorful cowboy sculpture that exudes a strong American flavor. As a soldier's convalescent home during the Civil War, the museum is full of historical secrets inside. Of course, as an art-themed exhibition hall, the exhibits mainly focus on paintings and sculptures, and the museum has a total of four floors.
