I went to the Art Institute of Chicago a few years ago and checked in all the famous paintings inside. I was too busy to take a closer look. This time I went to Chicago and made a special trip again.
During this time, I fell in love with a British plush toy brand, jellycat, and found a store in Chicago to sell it. I went to have a look, and finally bought a lobster with a very special shape, especially the eyes. This time to the art gallery, I brought lobster, his name is Larry. If you go directly to Michigan Avenue to find a place to park, it will cost $25 per hour. Fortunately, it only costs more than ten dollars if you reserve a parking space three hours in advance.
Come to Michigan Avenue, where the dream begins, take a photo first:
There is a key exhibit in this issue at the entrance: church glass, first find an angle to lie down.
I have seen most of the famous paintings on the second floor, nothing special, and I don’t know much about these oil paintings. I remember that there is an area for medieval armor items on the second floor, which is very interesting, so I went straight there.
Fork lobster!
Larry pulling the trigger!

This is a super famous painting. There was an endless stream of people in front of the painting. After finding an angle to put the lobster on, it took a long time to get this space. A woman came over with a smile and said: I see what you are doing, it’s super funny. hey-hey
Van Gogh’s house, he painted many pictures, everywhere
Monet water lily
Excited Larry and Monet’s Haystacks
Impressionists here saw a painting that did not belong to the category I knew, it felt very beautiful, there were still a lot of people around who were attracted to stop, there was a quiet and sad feeling
The first floor is full of very old exhibits. I didn’t have much interest. I just went to the negative first floor to take a look. There was a special exhibition that day, showing various miniature rooms of previous collectors, super exquisite
Even the things inside the side door that cannot be seen from the front are complete, too thin
There is also an Egyptian exhibition hall on the negative first floor, which is quite small but also has some good things.
Egyptian illustrations must be very popular now, simple and flat solid color design style
In fact, this art museum mainly focuses on a large number of collections of paintings. Unfortunately, I am not knowledgeable. This time, the exhibits mainly interact with lobsters, so it is purely for fun.
