| The National Gallery in Trafalgar Square, London, houses the national collection of European paintings, comprising more than 2,000 pictures dating from the late 13th to the early 20th century. The pictures belong to the public and access to them is free, as it has been since the Gallery was first founded in 1824. The National Gallery has the most comprehensive collection of Italian Renaissance paintings outside Italy. The museum also has impressive collections of works by Rembrandt and other Dutch artists. | ||||||
