The Huntington Gardens - The Huntington Art Gallery


Don't forget, the gardens surround the villa, and oh what a villa.

Henry E. Huntington build what is now called The Huntington Art Gallery in 1911.

Such a wonderful place to go to relax, and so diverse. It you don't want the Beaux-Arts house, you can get a completely different vibe at the new Japanese Pavilion.
 But do stay a while, enjoy this library, the British Art as well as the French, the early miniatures, silver medals, 18th century snuffboxes, the loggia, Renaissance paintings and furniture, Wedgwood vases, Morris & Co. stained glass window, ceramics, paintings, more paintings.

We are so lucky to have The Huntington preserved for us all.
