PRIVATE TOUR – SOLD OUT
Tuesday 9th February 2027 at 10:15am (meet) – 10.30am (start)
Meeting Point: Inside the Sainsbury Wing of the National Gallery. Once you have gone through security and the entrance door, Muriel Carré will be waiting in the main hall, immediately right of the doors, between the doors and the big stairs! You can’t miss her!
With Valentine’s Day approaching, we are inviting you to a specially curated tour of the National Gallery where we will be focusing on a selection of ravishingly beautiful paintings on the theme of LOVE.
Seduction, courtship, marriage, voyeurism, fidelity, adultery, gods and mortals, beds and alcoves, Cupid’s arrow will leave no painting untouched.
Botticelli, Van Eyck, Titian, Veronese, Watteau, Gainsborough, Reni, Rembrandt, Velazquez, Rubens and many more old masters have all conspired to paint LOVE for our eyes only!
Advice to participants:
– Wear ultra-comfortable shoes.
– Check weather forecasts and make sure you have warm and waterproof clothes if necessary. Being cold on a walking tour can spoil the entire experience.
– Do not hesitate to bring a little snack with you (nuts or biscuits) and a flask of your favourite drink.
