Jose LopezFebruary 12, 2015An art gallery, it's a bit small compared to other galleries and museums in London, however it's worth the visit, if you are close enough and enjoy art spend a bit of your time there.
Y MeNovember 22, 2014Impressionists + Egon Schiele's special exhibition for now. £4.00 Students can get a discount with their student ID card (It doesn't matter eventhough its not an international one.)
A lovely gallery. Temporary exhibitions change frequently and you can always go back for the permanent one. Absolutely favourite! It is not free though.Upvoted Feb 3
Marie-Anne RamondAugust 23, 2013Nice little museum in the heart of Somerset House. You can admire some of Botticelli, Rubens, Cézanne, Van Gogh, Manet and Renoir paintings. Admission: only 3£ on Mondays.
Charlotte BeckettMay 6, 2012Ashamed to say this is my first time here after many years living in London. Don't wait as long as I did. The top floor is a microcosmic lesson in modern art.
RAY AAlAJune 21, 2022For a chance to see more from Claude Monet, a very quiet gallery without a doubt not a must but still enjoyable the same
Simon HerbertSeptember 9, 2012Exhibitions on the top floor are always interesting but the perpetual exhibits are worth the admission price on their own - a wonderful slice of history.

TurkanAugust 5, 2013Great collection of impressionist paintings. A day is not enough to see everything.
