'Self Portrait in a Straw Hat' by Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun

Our identities are unique to each of us – composed of race, gender, sexuality and much more – they shape how we see the world. From a fond childhood memory to the legacy of a loved one, we can all see our stories in the pictures placed on the Gallery’s walls.

Providing our own insights into iconic artworks and hidden gems, we want to offer you a glimpse of the collection through our eyes.

We can’t guarantee that all of our chosen paintings will be on display when you visit, but you can find them all on our website!)
