About
The collection includes paintings, drawings, prints sculpture and decorative arts ranging from the medieval period to the present day. The Courtauld 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 and Vincent van Gogh’s Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear. They were assembled by the collector and philanthropist Samuel Courtauld, one of the founders of this institution.
The Courtauld Gallery presents an exciting programme of acclaimed temporary exhibitions, sharing new insights into the work of significant artists past and present.
The Gallery’s activities offer something for everyone, whatever their level of knowledge. They draw on the Courtauld Institute’s position as a leading international centre for teaching and research in art history, conservation and curating.
