National Gallery of Art - Entrance

這是去年6月9日去Washington DC的遊記，那天下午參觀完了National Museum of Natural History（國立自然歷史博物館）之後，我就走出來，一路上在Smithsonian系列的博物館街道外面走著，走到了這個我也想去參觀的「National Gallery of Art」（國家藝廊），不過抵達的時候離閉館時間只剩下一個多小時，Smithsonian系列博物館都是免費入場的，所以只有時間壓力沒有門票壓力，所以我還是走了進去。下面照片是我走到的國家藝廊的West Building（西館）後門的入口，這個館的大入口不是這一個，不過還是可以進去，進去的時候一樣門口也會有警衛進行安檢，會請遊客打開隨身攜帶的包包檢查。

這是在地面層的圓形大廳的天井。

天井下面有一個雕塑品，他手指指向著這個天井。圓形大廳的樑柱都是大理石製的，很華麗。

其實參觀沒多久，就被館內警衛趕出來了，因為要閉館了。我其實在館內也沒有好好仔細看，有點可惜，進去的大部分時間都在拍照（大概是部落客的宿命，拍照比好好參觀來的重要很多），拍到的照片很多都是很著名的畫作跟雕塑品。下面照片就是地面層的走廊，走廊旁邊也展覽了很多雕塑品。

一路沿著走廊走出來West Building的大入口，大入口果真非常氣派。

大入口也有National Gallery of Art的招牌。

同場加映：這是從國立自然歷史博物館走到國家藝廊中間經過的建築物，也是很氣派所以就隨手拍下了，這是「Archives of the United States of America」（美國國家檔案局）。
