Our guide (for the 14:00 guided English speaking tour) did a remarkable job. It was a rainy day and the museum had lost power and was running way behind. The guide explained the situation up front to us so we had more realistic expectations. She then proceeded to tell us the very interesting background of the artist and his influences, rivals, etc. She also talked extensively about the materials and techniques. All in all, she did a marvelous job of entertaining us for the hour delay and then gave us a very thorough discussion of David. She was terrific!!

The ticket to skip the line is definitely worth it, especially on weekends. The friendly and professional guide was very good and in fact it was a private tour.
