As quoted from The DAC, Museum of Decorative Painting in Atlanta, Georgia. USA.

"It is open to the public and is well worth a visit if you are in the vicinity. It is a treat to see decorative painting from all over the world and from several centuries. You will find examples of early American Folk Art, Chinese pith painting, Chinoiserie, Dutch Hindeloopen, English narrow boat painting, Norwegian Rosemaling, and Russian lacquered miniatures. Also on display are contemporary works from many Master Decorative Artists and well known decorative artists from the United States, Argentina, Australia, Canada, England, Holland, Japan, Russia and many other countries."

This museum is the premiere repository of decorative painting.
