La National Gallery es uno de los más ...

La National Gallery es uno de los más grandes y más importantes museos de Londres. Fue fundada en 1824, y tiene una impresionante colección, más que todo de pinturas, que van desde el siglo XIII hasta el XX. Las colecciones más recientes se encuentran en los museos de arte moderno de la ciudad. La National Gallery se encuentra en la plaza de Trafalgar Square. La entrada es gratuita, pero puedes dejar una donación en la entrada para contribuir al buen funcionamiento del museo, que recibe más de 4 millones de visitantes al año. El inmueble es un gran edificio de estilo neoclásico, que se parece al Partenón de Atenas, con un gran domo encima. Es un museo más pequeño que el del Louvre en París, o que el del Prado de Madrid, pero la National Gallery fue creada al inicio por la nacionalización de colecciones privadas, que pertenecían a los príncipes y reyes ingleses. Las donaciones todavía representan dos tercios de las colecciones y hay un montón de obras maestreas, como los Girasoles e Vang Gogh, telas de Rembrandt, Rubens, Velásquez, Titian, Da Vinci… La parte impresionista es muy amplia, con Monet, Van Gogh y muchos más. Durante la segunda guerra mundial, las telas se escondieron en Gales y fueron muy bien preservadas.
The National Gallery is one of the largest and most important museums of London. It was founded in 1824 and has an impressive collection, mostly of paintings, ranging from the thirteenth to the twentieth century. The latest collections are in museums of modern art in the city. The National Gallery is in Trafalgar Square. Admission is free, but you can leave a donation at the entrance to contribute to the smooth operation of the museum, which receives more than 4 million visitors a year. The property is a large neoclassical building, which resembles the Parthenon in Athens, with a large dome on top. It is a smaller museum than the Louvre in Paris or the Prado in Madrid, but the National Gallery was founded at the beginning of the nationalization of private collections belonging to the princes and kings of England. Donations still represent two-thirds of the collections and there are plenty of maestreas works such as Van Gogh Sunflowers and fabrics, Rembrandt, Rubens, Velasquez, Titian, Da Vinci ... The part is extensive Impressionist, Monet, Van Gogh and many more. During World War II, fabrics hid in Wales and were very well preserved.

Majestic art

Un'arte maestosa

Ho visitato questo luogo nei primi giorni di maggio del 2011, ero in compagnia di mia madre. Dopo aver assillato per giorni i miei genitori, pregandoli di accompagnarmi in un luogo che se non avessi visitato in quel momento che mi trovavo a Londra me ne sarei in seguito pentita, mia mamma cedette, e una mattina, dopo un buon caffè, ci dirigemmo verso quell'imponente edificio che fino ad allora avevo visto solo nei film. Prima di entrare mi dovetti per forza fermare ad ammirarne la maestosità architettonica: sembrava quasi di trovarsi di fronte a un tempio greco incastonato tra le mura di un edificio più moderno ma altrettanto affascinante. Una volta entrata rimasi all'interno per ore e ore, apprezzando ogni pittura e soffermandomi su alcuni dei quadri più meravigliosi sui quali abbia mai posato gli occhi. Io che amo l'arte consiglio vivamente la visita di questo luogo affascinante, che accoglie dei capolavori su tela all'interno delle sue stanze altrettanto maestose e pittoresche.
I visited this place in early May of 2011, I was with my mother. After harassed for days my parents, asking them to take me to a place that if I had not visited in that moment that I was in London I would later regret, my mom gave in, and one morning, after a good cup of coffee, we headed to that formidable building that until then I had only seen in movies. Prior to joining I had to force stop to admire the architectural majesty: it seemed to be in front of a greek temple nestled between the walls of a building more modern but equally fascinating. Once inside I was inside for hours, enjoying every painting and reflecting on some of the most beautiful paintings on which I have ever laid eyes on. I love that art highly recommend a visit to this fascinating place, which houses masterpieces on canvas within its premises less majestic and picturesque.

Magnificent

Magnifique

Le musée de la National Gallery est très réputé à Londres, car il accueille de très belles œuvres de peintres célèbres comme Van Gogh, Monet, Raphael, Renoir, et tant d'autres. Situé au sommet de la place de Trafalgar, le musée est gratuit ( chose étonnante étant donné les richesses qu'il contient !) et vous pouvez demander un guide audio avec votre London Pass dans la langue de votre choix, pour suivre une partie de la collection avec des explications sur l'artiste et l'oeuvre. Nous nous sommes attardés surtout devant les Tournesols de Van Gogh.
The Museum of the National Gallery in London is very famous because it is home to beautiful works of famous artists such as Van Gogh, Monet, Raphael, Renoir, and many others. Located at the top of Trafalgar Square, the museum is free (surprisingly given the wealth it contains!) And you can request an audio guide with your London Pass in the language of your choice to follow some of the collection with explanations about the artist and the work. We focused especially to the Van Gogh Sunflowers.

La galerie nationale de Londres est aussi un des musées gratuits dans cette ville mais personnellement je n'ai pas beaucoup aimée. C'est une galerie avec beaucoup de cadres de grands peintres et même que ses couleurs sont très beaux je n'aime pas trop les peintures catholiques, une ou deux oui mais, la plupart de peintures dans ce musée c'était sur ça. Alors, si quelqu'un aime ce type de cadres vous aller l'adorer ce musée. Et c'est qui est aussi très dommage c'est qu'ici on ne peut pas prendre de photos, c'est interdit dans toute la galerie.
The National Gallery in London is a free museum in this city but I personally do not have much loved. This is a gallery with many great artists and executives as well as the colors are beautiful I do not like the Catholic paintings, one or two yes, but most of paintings in this museum that was on it. So if someone likes this kind of frames you get the love this museum. And who is also a shame is that here we can not take pictures, it is forbidden throughout the gallery.
