"Most Notable "
Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University is most notable for its fine collection of medieval sculpture, but it is also host to a lovely collection of stained glass and an extensive collection of pre-Columbian exhibits and classical objects. The museum’s Chinese jade is quite unusual. American and European paintings, prints, and drawings round out the trip to the museum.
