About
Like many others, I was drawn in by the architectural beauty of the Oval Room—and I can't wait to take a peek!
Most people flock to the breathtaking Oval Room, with its sky-high 59-foot ceiling and massive skylight that floods the space with light. The intricate mosaics and grand archways are just the cherry on top. And let’s not forget, the place houses a staggering 20,000 works, including 9,000 international comic books spanning from the 1830s to today.
