I was an art history major at U of Chicago after I dropped out of physics in my senior year. We had some of our classes in the museum and it always overwhelmed me. Mother was a fine arts major at U of C and I was raised in the Art Institute in front of the Lorado Taft statues, then got to take classes in his studio, where mother had studied.
I liked all of the more famous works but I thought the miniature recreations of the period room were so neat.
