The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York has purchased the jewelry, part of collection of 37, 4,000-year-old Egyptian artifacts found a century ago by a British explorer, averting a plan to auction the antiquities that had drawn criticism from historians.
Designed by Swiss architect Mario Botta in 1995, the 225,000-square-foot museum is recognizable for its red, stepped facade and central black and white striped tower atrium. The combined square footage of both buildings, old and new, will make SFMOMA the largest Contemporary Art museum in the country. (For comparison, the new Whitney Museum in New Yorkâs Meatpacking district is 200,000 square feet.)
