The Metropolitan Museum of Art has nearly three million objects in its collections. It has been estimated that if you spent a minute looking at each object without taking a break, it would take you more than five and a half years to see them all.
The Met is one of the world's largest and finest art museums. The collections span 5,000 years of world culture, from prehistory to the present and from all over the world. Paintings, drawings, and sculpture are only a part of the Museum's collections. Some of the more unusual objects include musical instruments, costumes, and arms and armor.
