The Courtauld Gallery

The Courtauld Gallery is home to one of the world’s great art collections, located in the magnificent historical setting of Somerset House in central London.

The Courtauld’s much-loved collection includes paintings, drawings, prints, sculpture and decorative arts ranging from the Renaissance through to the 20th century.

The Gallery is renowned for its remarkable group of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings, including the world-famous A Bar at the Folies Bergère by Édouard Manet, Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear by Vincent van Gogh and the most significant collection of works by Cézanne in the UK. These masterpieces are displayed in The Courtauld’s spectacularly restored LVMH Great Room – London’s oldest purpose-built exhibition space.

The Blavatnik Fine Rooms, a suite of six galleries spanning the entire second floor of the building, provide a stunning setting for showcasing some of the greatest and most-loved works from the Renaissance through to the 18th century.

There are also galleries dedicated to The Courtauld’s important collection of paintings and decorative arts from the Medieval and Early Renaissance periods, and rooms devoted to 20th century art and the Bloomsbury Group.

Alongside its permanent collection, The Courtauld Gallery hosts critically acclaimed temporary exhibitions in its Denise Coates Exhibition Galleries.
