The collection
The National Gallery was founded in 1824 when the British government bought 38 paintings from the banker John Julius Angerstein, and it has sat on the north side of Trafalgar Square since 1838. Its 2,300 or so pictures cover Western European painting from the thirteenth century to 1900, and because entry has always been free its best-known works, Sunflowers, the Arnolfini Portrait and the Fighting Temeraire among them, are some of the most looked-at paintings in the world.
The works here
Van Gogh's Sunflowers (the August 1888 version with fifteen flowers); Titian's Bacchus and Ariadne; Van Eyck's Arnolfini Portrait; Caravaggio's Supper at Emmaus; Turner's The Fighting Temeraire and Rain, Steam and Speed; Constable's The Hay Wain.
