Топик: Art galleries of London
Speaking about art galleries of London we should first of all
mention The national gallery, The national portrait gallery and The state
gallery. I would like to tell you about National portrait gallery and about
Tate gallery.
The national gallery houses one of the richest and most extensive
collections of painting in the world. It stands to the north of the Trafalgar
Square. the gallery was designed by William Wilkins and build in 1834-37. The
collection covers all schools and periods of painting, but is a specially
famous for it's examples of Rembrandt and Rubents. The British schools is only
moderately represented as the national collections are shared with the Tate
gallery. The National gallery was founded in 1824 when the government bought
the collection of John Angerstein which included 38 paintings.
The Tate gallery houses the national collection of British painting
from the 16-th century to the present day. It is also the national gallery for
modern art, including painting and sculpture made in Britain, Europe, America
and other countries. It was opened in 1897 as the national gallery of British
art. It owes it's establishment to Suie Henritate who built the gallery and
gave his own collection of 65 painting.
