National Gallery annual review
November 13 2012
Picture: National Gallery
The National Gallery's annual review for 2011-12 has been published, and is worth a read. It details all the latest acquisitions and loans, and surveys what must be one of the Gallery's most successful years ever, with the acquistion of Titian's Diana and Callisto, and the Leonardo exhibition (which was the Gallery's busiest yet). Regarding the latter, I see that in his introduction, Director Nicholas Penny makes a special mention of the 'loyalty of a group of Gallery Assistants' who broke the strikes at the Gallery last year, and allowed the Leonardo exhibition to remain open.
