Art gallereys of London

Speaking about art gallereys of London we should first of all mention

The national gallery, The national portret galerey and The tate gallery.

I would like to tell you about National portret 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 gallerey was desighned 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 Rembrant and

Rubents. The british schools is only moderately represented as the

national collections are shared with the Tate gallerey. The National

gallerey 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

gallerey for modern art, including painting and sculpture made in

Britain, Europe, America and other countries. It was opened in 1897 as

the national gallerey of british art. It owes it's establishment to Suie

Henritate who built the gallerey and gave his own collection of 65

painting.
