This is a very popular museum that is known for the rare paintings in store. They have a small but a very fine collection of masterpieces dating from centuries ago to recent times. The name Kimbell was kept after the names of Kay and Velma Kimbell whose private collections were the 1st exhibits of this museum. They also donated a hefty amount for the relocation of these exhibits in a permanent building.

The main collections of the museum apart from the many expert pieces are-

  • The design of the museum building itself and most remarkably the natural silvery wash on the ceiling.
  • The ‘Torment of St. Anthony’ which is known to be the 1st painting of the great Michelangelo and also the only one on exhibit of the Americas.
  • The paintings of Friedrich that is hardly found in USA.
  • The Classical period arts from Egypt, Assyria, Greece and Rome.
  • The Asian collection comprising of sculptures, paintings, bronzes, ceramics and works of other decorative art pieces.
  • African collection with fine pieces from Nigeria, Angola and other Democratic States. The most attractive is a piece of Oceanic Art represented by a Maori Figure.
