A host of European painters including Vermeer, Picasso, and Van Gogh await you as you learn about their troubled yet exciting lives.

Kevin was a fantastic guide. As an artist and an art historian, he had insights about the art we saw and the artists who produced it that we would never have gotten on our own. (I mean, we've all seen ancient Egyptian art, but I'd never known how it was created, what it meant, and how it fit in with the beliefs of the people back then.) The tour was well-paced and entertaining, and we learned about the background of the art we saw, the artists who created it, and its place at The Met. Highly recommended.

Kevin was an excellent guide - very informative. He is an art history so quite knowledgable. He was polite when answering all our questions while also trying to allow us to see as much as we could.
