National Museum of Art – Cardiff

Official Website 

The second day of my trip to Cardiff was spent at the National Museum of Art housed within the National Musuem.  The gallery is split into 3 main parts, Contemporary, Impressionists & Modern and Historic Art.  I actually found a few pieces in the Contemporary section that I liked, which is rather surprising.

One response to “National Museum of Art – Cardiff

  1. What an interesting blog, introduced by a thought-provoking photo. The unusual wall painting of the dwellings is also a strangely modern interpretation. Something like this hieroglyphic view of a park by Swiss painter Paul Klee, http://EN.WahooArt.com/A55A04/w.nsf/OPRA/BRUE-8LT475. The image can be seen at wahooart.com who can supply you with a canvas print of it.
