Cornell Fine Arts MuseumThe Cornell Fine Arts Museum houses more than 6,000 works of art, one of the largest collections of its kind in the state of Florida. The museum is a study in Renaissance paintings and Tiffany glass.

The museum's collection was started in 1927, when the Samuel H. Kress Foundation donated many Italian Renaissance paintings, which included "Madonna and Child Enthroned" by Cosimo Rosselli.

The Old Masters Collection was started by gifts from various alumni. A Chinese collection contains works that date back to 1959. Favorite pieces include paintings from Rembrandt and from Cezanne.

The Tiffany Glass collection is also one of the finest of its kind, showcasing hundreds of stunning pieces in the Morse Gallery.
