Dulwich Picture Gallery

Thomas Gainsborough - The Linley Sisters (c. 1770) detailBBC London's Visual Arts website is featuring Dulwich Picture Gallery, which won the top award for Small Visitor Attraction in 2005. It's an interesting article and a surprising one coming from the BBC, which usually does its best to promote Anti Art. None of that tripe in the Dulwich (see Coxsoft Art's London page). Its collection includes Murillo's Flower Girl and his Two Peasant Boys, Poussin's The Nurture of Jupiter and Gainsborough's magnificent portrait of The Linley Sisters. What the BBC's article fails to mention is that the Dulwich Picture Gallery's website won a Coxsoft Art Silver Surfer Friendly Award.
