<p>I am taking AP Art History this year, and I will be touring Europe this summer! I would love to visit art museums and what not to experience some monumental works in person before the class begins. </p>
<p>I am going to Amsterdam, Rome, Paris, and London. Any suggestions for places/museums to visit?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Try to go into the Vatican and check out the Sistine Chapel and Saint Peter’s Basilica.</p>
<p>Le Louvre, Le Musee d’Orsay, L’Orangerie, Saint Peter’s, Sistine Chapel, anywhere you can find Caravaggio, Accademia Gallery, Pantheon, Arch of Constantine, Column of Trajan, etc.</p>
<p>Oh, and see if you can find one of the many copies of the Augustus of Primaporta 
That’s my favorite Roman piece.</p>
<p>Before D took AP art history we were in Paris/London for a leadership conference. One of the places we especially liked was Musee Rodin. </p>

<p>Yes, the Augustus of Primaporta is so cool!</p>
