Government Art Collection
Almost 125 years-old, the Government Art Collection displays works of art in British government buildings in the UK and over 125 countries around the world. Its 15,000 works of art from the 16th century to today promote British art, history and culture worldwide.
The Collection plays a role in British cultural diplomacy. It delivers an expression of Britain’s soft power, its culture and its values, in UK government buildings at home and abroad. Staff from the Collection curate displays, oversee the transport, and handle the conservation of each of these 15,000 works.
