In the century since its founding as a public institution, the Morgan’s collections have grown dramatically, deepening the core assembled by J. Pierpont Morgan and his librarian, Belle da Costa Greene, who became the first Director of the institution. This growth is made possible through the support of members and donors who expand and enrich the historical, artistic, and literary contexts of the Morgan’s holdings, and this exhibition commemorates a notable selection of purchases, gifts, and promised gifts made in honor of the Morgan’s Centennial. Ranging from the Middle Ages to the present, the Centennial acquisition highlights include two manuscripts related to the publication of Leonardo da Vinci’s Treatise on Painting; Renaissance and modern bookbindings of exceptional craftsmanship; an extraordinary group of manuscripts related to Queen Elizabeth I, Marie de’ Medici, Edgar Allan Poe, and John Coltrane; groups of photographs by Emmet Gowin and Frederick Sommer; and drawings by Parmigianino, Annibale Carracci, Cy Twombly, Helen Frankenthaler, Giuseppe Penone, and Bridget Riley.

The Morgan Library & Museum

Museums

When I heard that this treasure-rich classical museum in Midtown New York has a museum with a rich collection of books, I immediately added it to my check-in list. After visiting it, it immediately upgraded to the top 3 museums in New York. Both the appearance of the museum and the exhibits inside give people a sense of surprise.

Such a spectacular museum is the private collection of the famous J.P. Morgan. According to the introduction in the museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art also has many of his donated collections. When I saw the library with a large scale of books, I instantly realized the true meaning of the old saying that books have their own golden house. The museum itself is also very architectural. It was designed by the famous Italian architect Renzo Piano. The library and the architecture of the museum itself are cleverly integrated together. The classical library is full of books when you look up, coupled with the dark red printed walls and velvet curtains, full of literary and artistic temperament. I think reading here is also a different kind of enjoyment.

Central Park is very fun. There are large lawns and many squirrels running around. You can rent bicycles and ride horse-drawn carriages in the park. It is also nice to just walk around. There is a huge children&#39;s playground not far from Columbus circle. Children from all over the world who come to New York come here to play. They can play in the sand and water, and there are slides, swings, and rockeries. It is easy to play for half a day. There are also many people playing on the lawn. Many people there like to throw frisbees. Many families come here for vacation. It doesn&#39;t get dark until about 8:30 in the summer in the United States, so it&#39;s no problem to play in the park for a whole day!

Very good Bronx Zoo, one of the must-see places in New York. I really like the facilities and garden design here. It is beautiful and friendly to watch. We didn&#39;t see many animals because it was raining.
