WALLACE COLLECTION

Wallace Collection, London

The tour includes the finest private collection of art ever assembled by one family.

It was bequeathed to the nation by Lady Wallace, widow of Sir Richard Wallace, in 1897, and opened to the public just over three years later on 22 June 1900. Its first visitors were variously delighted, amazed and bemused.

Covent Garden, London Among its treasures are one of the best collections of French 18th-century pictures, porcelain and furniture in the world, a remarkable array of 17th-century paintings and a superb armoury collection.

Many of the works have a mysterious, different character distinguishing themselves from other National Galleries. many masterpieces reflect something of the French character and personality from landscape to statuettes.
