Description

Set in Lincoln Park as part of the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, the institution houses ancient and European art spanning over 4,000 years. Outside, Auguste Rodin's *The Thinker* anchors a broader holding of 90 Rodin works, noted as the largest outside the Rodin Museum in Paris. Inside, the enormous, spaciously arranged exhibition halls give the galleries an unhurried scale, keeping the spaces from feeling crowded or overwhelming.
