Highlights

  • Permanent displays cover several centuries and styles, from early portraiture to 19th- and 20th-century movements.
  • Temporary exhibitions run alongside the core collection, so you may find a themed show or experimental presentation.
  • Galleries vary in scale, with intimate rooms and larger halls that show big paintings and sculptures.
  • The layout can be easy to lose yourself in, so collect a map on arrival and follow the sections that interest you most.
