Make a visit of it

The indoor courtyard with the fountain is one of the most peaceful rooms in NYC. Vermeer's Officer and Laughing Girl is here -- three Vermeers total, in a mansion, not a warehouse. The intimacy is the point.

After: Via Quadronno (Italian cafe, $10-18). 73rd and Madison. Milanese panini and espresso. Feels like a European intermission.
