The Phillips Collection

In a townhouse in Dupont Circle, The Phillips Collection, established in 1921, feels more like stepping into someone’s home (well, you are) and if that someone also casually owned a Renoir, a few Rothkos, and some Georgia O’Keeffes. The Rothko Room, designed by the artist himself, remains a hushed must-see. There’s a quiet radicalism to the curation: intimate, unexpected, with modern masters (from Impressionism, Surrealism, and Abstract Expressionism) alongside contemporary newcomers. It’s America’s first modern art museum, too.
