Paweł CzerwonkaMay 6, 2013Altough it's free, try chiping inn with some money. The collection is amazing and should be preserved.
J DMarch 15, 2014No photography allowed anywhere, even of the architectural features of the building. This is rubbish (dare I say petty) and NG seem to have forgotten they own all of this on behalf of the country.
Just go inside. Sit and look. They are your very own Turners, Constables etc. Everything in here belongs to all of us. Read more

"A wonderful place for people watching on a sunny day or as a romantic meeting place at dusk, but look out for the pigeons. A visit to the National Gallery is also highly recommended."
Louis Vuitton - 9.0
