Gorgeous and impressive collection with lots of works even the casual viewer will recognize. Large enough to be well worth the trip but small enough to do as a side trip or in an hour or so drop by.

We have been to London many times but never to Somerset House, where the Courtauld Gallery is housed. This gallery was a real treat, with a beautiful collection of Impressionist paintings. If you enjoy art, you shouldn't miss a visit here.
