Ever visited the Phillips? Unlike many of Washington, DC's huge art museums like the National Gallery of Art and the Hirshorn, close to D.C.'s central Mall, the Phillips Collection was a private home tucked away near Dupont Circle. Among the many great art works is the large canvas that is perhaps Renoir's greatest painting, "The Boating Party." Read and/or listen to NPR's "Celebrating the Phillips Collections's 90th Birthday," by Susan Stamberg.
