The National Gallery - 1 of 3

The National Gallery can not be missed on a visit to London. First, the building, over 200 years old (plus a new wing just opened) is a piece of artwork on its own, with column and stained glass and a layout that is open and inviting to browse or to select your favorite era of art or your favorite artists and follow them. We spent hours there but you can spend days enjoying the artwork from all eras.

Of the 2,300 painting in the National Gallery, we took photos of over 200 of our "favorites" and posted 30 of them here (in 3 postings). See art we loved by Klimt, Monet, Renoir, Degas, Cezanne, Seurat, Gauguin, Pissarro, Toorop, and Van Gogh .... the list goes on.

The best way to do this FREE museum justice is to see it, in person or virtually. After you look at our favorites, take a look at these links for more and more. Have fun. An online list of highlight paintings to explore and Information for all paintings is online and The National Gallery Imaginarium (a free virtual space to interact with the paintings) https://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/visiting/acc…. and Free audio descriptions are on the website https://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/audio/audio-… and YouTube channel [external link] explores key paintings and goes behind the scenes at the Gallery. https://www.youtube.com/user/nationalgalleryukLeia mais
