The renowned Worcester Art Museum will surprise you. The collection ranges from ancient Chinese, Egyptian, and Sumerian objects through Roman statuary and mosaics, pre-Columbian artifacts, Japanese ukiyo-e prints and European paintings by the great masters, to American primitives and works by the great American painters. It's one of those smaller museums with a comprehensive collection studded with masterpieces. Besides Edward Hicks's famous Peaceable Kingdom, you'll see Gauguin's famous Brooding Woman, Rembrandt's Saint Bartholomew, and Mary Cassatt's Woman Bathing. The museum has a pleasant cafe serving soups, salads and sandwiches, wine and beer. The way to the museum is marked with signs from the city center. Here's a map. Worcester Art Museum
