Van Gogh: Self-Portraits at The Courtauld & Gainsborough’s Blue Boy at The National Gallery

We are delighted to invite you to join us for a morning in London to enjoy a private tour of Van Gogh Self-Portraits at The Courtauld, with Dr Chris Stephens as a guide, followed by a visit to The Courtauld’s newly opened Collection Galleries.

Afterwards, we will visit The National Gallery to see Gainsborough’s Blue Boy, accompanied by Susan Sloman, independent historian and expert in British art of the 18th and early 19th centuries, and also author of Gainsborough in Bath. This is the first time the iconic work, which was painted in Bath, has been loaned by The Huntington and is a once-in-a-century opportunity to see the painting in the UK.

We are delighted that there may also be an opportunity to meet Professor Deborah Swallow, Director of The Courtauld and its Gallery, as well as Dr Gabriele Finaldi, Director of the National Gallery.
