Who hasn’t heard of the Louvre, the Prado, the British Museum? But the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek? I didn’t even know it existed much less how to pronounce it. I won’t forget it now.
In wandering Copenhagen, I couldn’t miss billboards promoting an Impressionist exhibit there and my guidebook made it sound promising. I hadn’t passed up the Carlsberg Brewery tour, of course. (Recommended!) And it turns out that all that Carlsberg beer made the brewery founder’s son, Carl Jacobsen, a very rich art collector and very philanthropic, resulting in the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek.
It’s my kind of museum. Cozy and impressive, massive but manageable with art enough to please every taste from Roman through French Impressionists, sculptures and Danish painters.
The Winter Garden’s light-filled space combines large palms (yes, in Denmark!) and sculptures with a simple café overlooking it at one side. By the time you wander through galleries filled with art and archaeological items from ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome, as well as Danish and French art of the 19th century it's a welcome spot to rest, savor a smørrebrød, and enjoy the view.
Thinking that I’d seen everything, walked out. Waiting at the bus stop, I looked toward the side of the building, illustrated with the same billboard design advertising their French Impressionist exhibit. How could I have missed that? Easily, it seems. I’d been absorbed by so much else in the main building that I'd never noticed there are three connected wings. The door to access one was hidden at the far end of the Winter Garden. It was devoted to Van Gogh, Monet, Manet, Monet, Rousseau and more. It doesn't replace Paris' Musée d'Orsay for sheer quantity of Impressionists but up close 'n personal, it's a treat. And discovered how much I like Rousseau.
If you’re in Copenhagen, don’t miss the Glyptotek. Oh, yes, and that’s Gleep-toe-tek.

In the history of the NFL, few redemption arcs have been as dramatic—or as swift—as Saquon Barkley's. One year, he was the star running back the New York Giants couldn't bring themselves to pay. The next, he was hoisting the Lombardi Trophy with the hated rival Philadelphia Eagles, holding his daughter as confetti rained down, and etching his name into the record books as the most prolific single-season rusher the league has ever seen.

To write about Chelsea Football Club is to trace the arc of modern football itself—a story of tradition abruptly intersecting with transformative wealth, leading to a relentless, often tumultuous, ascent to the summit of the game. Founded in 1905 in the affluent West London borough of Stamford Bridge, Chelsea long carried the air of the glamorous underachiever: a club with a famous home, a charismatic and celebrity-filled support, but a trophy cabinet that belied its stature. For decades, its identity was one of stylish flair and sporadic cup success, punctuated by the flamboyant sides of the 1960s and 70s. This all changed irrevocably on July 1, 2003, a date that marks the clearest "before and after" moment in football club…
