We visted the National Gallery this afternoon - the Impressionists had been re-hung in a different wing and grouped together, with different Impressionist paintings having been brought up from the vault. We saw Renoir's Umbrellas (pictured), Seurat's The Bathers, Van Gogh's magnificent Sunflowers, Picasso's Girl with a Dove, Degas, Manet, Monet's stunning Japanese bridge reflecting in the pond in his garden in Giverny (which I've walked over!), some stunning examples of pointillist style, some beautiful Pisarros which I'd not seen before, and generally just lost ourselves in the textured paint, murmuring crowd and city and landscapes from a century ago. Oh, and we revisted the 1700's room and saw Canaletto's Venetian vistas in a whole new light post our Easter trip there - want to go back!
