The Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, Texas has been called America's best small museum . Since its opening in 1972, the museum has won acclaim for its classic modern building designed by American architect Louis I. Kahn (1901-1974) and for a renowned collection of masterpieces ranging from ancient to modern times. This comprehensive handbook of the museum's collection presents over 240 works, including Old Master and modern paintings from Fra Angelico and Caravaggio to Cezanne and Matisse. Also included are important collections of Egyptian, Near Eastern, Greek, and Roman antiquities as well as the arts of Asia, Pre-columbian America and Africa.
