a british gem.

At the end of March, just before escaping to the quaint Irish countryside, I spent a few days exploring London.

I had fallen in love with London a few years ago while traveling abroad in college, so I was psyched to once again wander the streets of Notting Hill, revisit the Tate Museum, and generally soak up the quirky vibe of the old city.

While I had covered much of the art scene on my first visit, I was thrilled to discover the Courtauld Gallery on this second trip.

Housed in Somerset House, this small museum is truly a gem.

Beyond having absolutely beautiful mural work, molding, and lighting in each room, the gallery houses many of my favorite artists and some incredibly important pieces that I have always wanted to see in person.

A must see for any art lover.
