The Peggy Guggenheim Museum is an art museum that displays the collections of the wealthy American Peggy Guggenheim and her items during her lifetime. It is called "Venier's Lions Palace" because of the legend that lions were raised in the garden. The exhibits include paintings and sculptures of abstract and surrealist schools such as Picasso and Michelangelo, including Picasso's The Poet On the Beach and Duchamp's Sad Young Manona Train. , Pollack's "MoonWoman" and Milo's "Seated Woman" (SeatedWoman). Peggy Guggenheim, formerly known as Marguerite Guggenheim, is a wealthy woman, an important figure in promoting the development of abstract and surreal schools, and a crazy art collector. She comes from a powerful Jewish family in New York. She lived next to the Rockefeller family since she was a child. She was often locked up in the huge study at home in her childhood, facing the gloomy huge oil paintings all day long, perhaps out of a kind of rebellion against her childhood. Only then did she develop a crazy interest in art.
