Tales of the City

From bustling alleys and intricate architectural detail to sweeping panoramas of grand public celebrations and towering civic monuments, this display of prints and drawings captures the vibrancy and expansion of European cities from the 17th to the 19th century.

Curated to mark the recent acquisition of two views of Paris after Thomas Girtin (left), it includes works by outstanding artists such as Piranesi, Charles Meryon and James Abbott McNeill Whistler.
