The National Portrait Gallery at the St. Martin’s Place was opened in 1856. It exhibits portraits in form of photographys, caricatures, paintings and drawings created by major british and historical personalities. This gallery is special, because instead of the artist the person portrayed is the main focus of the exhibition. You can find there are also portaits of Queen Elizabeth and of Princess Catherine.
Closed until 2023
