Review:
The Legion of Honor is a public museum that is incorporated into the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco collective, open to the public for free on the first Tuesday of each month. The museum was constructed as a full-scale replica of the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition's 1915 French Pavilion, which had been constructed to mimic Paris' 1782 Palais de la Légion d'Honneur. It displays an impressive collection of ancient and modern art from around the world, spanning from antiquity through the present day. Collection strengths include French and European art by artists such as Auguste Rodin and Rembrandt, along with 20th-century modern art by the likes of Pablo Picasso. Visitors should note that even during free admission days, some special exhibitions require a ticketed upcharge.
