National Gallery of Art

The National Gallery of Art is an art museum on the National Mall, established by Congress in 1937 with the collection and funds of Andrew W. Mellon. John Russell Pope's neoclassical West Building shows European and American art from the Middle Ages on, I. M. Pei's East Building of 1978 holds modern art, and a sculpture garden lies beside them.
