Botero MuseumIn 2000, Fernando Botero opened the doors of this museum in his name. He donated many of his own works, characterized by their burly players, and a lot of his private collection including masters such as Picasso, Monet, Calder and de Kooning (valued at over 200 million dollars). This museum, housed in a colonial style house, is a must. |
