I remember being completely amazed that little museum owned and displayed one of the 3 "Washington Crossing the Delaware" paintings for a few years, before selling it for a cool $43 million in 2022.

I think the MN Marine Art Museum is one of the best regional art museums in the Midwest, if not the country. I also suspect it may be a huge tax write-off for it's main benefactor, fastener king (and former state senator) Bob Kierlan - but that's museum biz.
