The National Gallery of Art is one of the United States' largest public museums, located on the National Mall near Constitution Avenue. The museum was established as a private art museum in 1937 with substantial collection donations by Andrew W. Mellon and showcases major works of art by Western artists from the Middle Ages through the present day. Works on display include Ginevra de' Benci, the only Leonardo da Vinci painting located in the United States, along with significant holdings by internationally-renowned artists such as El Greco, Rembrandt, Auguste Rodin, and Edgar Degas. Visitors can explore the museum for free daily, which is also home to an impressive 6.1-acre outdoor sculpture garden.
