The De Young Museum, located in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, is a renowned fine arts museum that offers a diverse array of American art from the 17th through the 21st centuries, as well as international contemporary art, textiles, and costumes. Established in 1895, the museum was completely rebuilt and reopened in 2005 with a striking copper-clad design by the Swiss architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron.
