The Walker Art Gallery is part of National Museums Liverpool and contains the best collection of historic art outside of London. On display are European Renaissance paintings, masterpieces by Rubens, Poussin, Rembrandt, Turner and Stubbs, Pre-Raphaelite artworks by Rossetti and Millais and Impressionist works by Monet and Degas. The collection strongly represents British Art from 1880 to 1950, featuring works by Nash, Freud and Lowry among others and the ever-growing collection of contemporary art means there is always something new to experience. Younger visitors will enjoy Big Art for Little Artists the family gallery dedicated to introducing children under eight years to the collection.
