The Wallace Collection is one of the greatest of all private art collections. It was bequeathed to the British nation in 1897 by the widow of Sir Richard Wallace, a notable collector of works of art. Among its many exquisite pieces are some of the finest examples outside Paris of French 18th century paintings, porcelain and furniture, a remarkable display of 17th century paintings and a superb armoury. The Wallace Collection has the fundamental aims of safeguarding this unique collection, making it accessible for the present and preserving it for the future. Opening hours, maps, and information on planning a visit can be found on the Wallace Collection's website. Admission is free.
