Intimate Art Gallery
This is an execellent setting to experience a fair amount of world-class paintings by the older artists such as Botticelli and Rubens along with "newer" artists such as Manet, Monet, and Van Gogh.
I went specifically to see Manet's "A Bar at the Folies-Bergeres" and was pleasantly surprised by a number of other paintings such as Ruben's "Descent from the Cross" and Van Gogh's "Self-portrait with Bandaged Ear."
Within walking distance of the Savoy Hotel with Temple Underground Station being the closest access for subway travellers.
Do not miss it if you like art.
The Courtauld Institute of art is conveniently located on the Strand as part of Somerset House. The art gallery is much smaller and more intimate than the National Gallery, meaning it is less daunting in terms of scale. You can easily get round in an hour or two. The standard of art on show is second to none regarding the impressionists, and also there is excellent 16th/17th century art on show with a lot of the big names. It really wasnt busy when I went on a Saturday but for the L5 pound entry fee it is well worthwhile.
I personally considered the Gaugin pieces on show to be even better than those in the National Gallery.
Overall a really enjoyable visit.
Lovely museum with beautiful art
The Courtauld Gallery is a nice place with beautiful art in nice surroundings. The French and Italian pieces are a must see. We visited lastweek during the special Renoir exhibition. At first my main interest was only to see the famous Manet piece but there is so much more to see. Not as exciting as the National Gallery but it is a must on your to do list whilst in London.
Stellar Gallery
In a city of many large, more famous museums, this smaller one wins many future revisits from us. L5, Short walk from Temple station. Didn't see much of the Institute itself, so this review is only about the main Gallery.
The many sitting rooms, some small, really gives a more intimate and informal feeling to viewing the art. There's such a excellent quality of impressionist works housed here, including Renoir's La Loge, Manet's Bar at the Folies-Bergere, Gauguin's Nevermore and van Gogh's Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear. Nice selection of 18th & 20th century works too.
Downstairs is a neat little cafe where we grabbed a quick and tasty lunch.
Beautiful Teaching Galleries
These galleries, largely nineteenth and twentieth century paintings, are set up for art student study -- which meant that I saw beautiful things and I learned a lot. I can now tell the difference between Manet and Monet (I turn out to be a Monet person), and I sat for 15 minutes and studied the differences between silver teapots made early and late in the eighteenth century. A very welcoming place, with a great little cafe serving imaginative lunches.
