Overview

A fully licensed, insured, Blue Badge Guide and art historian who loves his work. An expert overview of the highlights of the National Gallery of Art. At your pace, a private tour of up to eight people. I cover the highlights, including works by Van Gogh, Monet, Titian, Raphael, Leonardo da Vinci, amongst others. I explain about their lives as well as the paintings. The tempestuous Caravaggio painting his own head on a platter. Why a famous work by Leonardo remains deliberately unfinished and Van Gogh's life reflected in the Sunflowers. We skip the line.

National Gallery

I provide a bespoke, private tour that is interesting and friendly. I bring to life the major paintings, as well as the artists, with stories of their works and lives. From Raphael to Rubens, Van Dyke to Van Gogh and Leonardo to Michelangelo. The masters will be explained. I cover the highlights of the collection, from Medieval Icons through the Renaissance, to the Post Impressionists. The tour can be at the direction of the client. Morning or Afternoon tour.
