The Taos Art Museum is located in the former house of Russian artist Nicolai Fechin, his wife Alexandra and daughter Eya. The museum's primary aims are to improve awareness of the works and patronage of Taos artists and to nurture local artistic development. With many of the works of the Taos Society of Artists held by museums outside of New Mexico, they intend to "Bring Taos art back to Taos."

    Beautiful house full of hand-carved wood work by the artist. The grounds are nice and are a quiet and pleasant place to relax. The traveling exhibit (Majorie Eaton) was well curated and enjoyable. The number of works by Fechin were limited but were a nice sample of his art. I enjoyed the house most of all since it has not been "updated" but contains many period furnishings as well as many of the original pieces of furniture as carved by the artist.

    Authentic interior. Check out the historic kitchen. Fine portraits. Wish some of the best were placed on the 1st floor. Some folks can't make it 😞 upstairs
