The John and Mable Ringling Museum of art
The State Art Museum of Florida
Category: Sarasota Museum near Sarasota-Bradenton, Florida
User Rating: 
Description of this Sarasota-Bradenton area Attraction: The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art is the remarkable legacy of circus entrepreneur and collector of art John Ringling and his wife, Mable.
The 66-acre estate includes the 21-gallery Museum of Art; the Venetian-Gothic Cà d’Zan mansion, winter-residence of John and Mable Ringling; historic grounds and gardens; the 18th-century Historic Asolo Theater; and the Circus Museums, including the home of the world’s largest miniature circus at the Tibbals Learning Center.
Upon his death in 1936, John Ringling left his art collection and estate to State of Florida. In 2000, the State of Florida transferred stewardship to Florida State University, establishing the Ringling estate as one of the largest museum/university complexes in the country. Today, the Museum of Art displays European, American and Asian works. The Old Master paintings, among the rarest and most celebrated in the United States, are the most important of the Museum’s holdings.
Having traveled often to Europe, John and Mable appreciated the culture and treasures of the continent’s architecture. They fell in love with Venice, and determined that their home on Sarasota Bay would emulate the grandeur of the Doge’s Palace, combined with the gothic grace of the Cà d’Oro. The mansion, completed in 1926, would soon become the epicenter of cultural life on Florida’s west coast. Their dream, to be known through Venetian dialect as the “House of John,” became what one writer called John’s “love letter to Mable.”
