ArtClosed · Opens 10amFreeCharing Cross

La National Gallery reúne más de 2.300 pinturas que abarcan desde el siglo XIII hasta comienzos del XX. Los girasoles de Van Gogh, La Virgen de las rocas de da Vinci, La Venus del espejo de Velázquez: el repertorio de obras maestras se lee como un manual de historia del arte occidental. La Sainsbury Wing alberga las obras más antiguas bajo una espléndida luz natural. Los viernes por la tarde el ambiente es maravillosamente tranquilo, en contraste con la aglomeración del fin de semana.
