Scottish National Gallery ***
Region: Edinburgh
Description:
The Scottish National Gallery is home to the largest part of Scotland's collection of fine art and undoubtedly one of the very best in the world.
The core works of the National Gallery's permanent collection are its Old Masters, with works by Van Dyck, Tiepolo and Rubens. Among the collection's earlier works, Raphael's 'Bridgewater Madonna', Poussin's 'Seven Sacraments' and Hugo Van der Goes' vivid Trinity Altarpiece should not be missed. The gallery's collection of 19th- and 20th-century works is particularly celebrated for its Impressionists and Post-impressionists: two fine Gauguins sit alongside works by Monet, Cézanne and Seurat.
The gallery also features the world's largest collection of Scottish art.
