Florence
We only had a long weekend to do the city and so your tour really helped us get our bearings. There's just so much to see there! I know we only scraped the surface but it worked really well for us.

Venice
This was a great tour that took you everywhere you needed to go. Particularly liked the walk through of the mosaic frescoes on the front of the Basilica. We had a great time in Venice, made all the more special by this evocative guide. Like the speaker's voice too - one of the best I've listened to.

LONDON - Picasso and the Masters

One of the most influential artists of the 20th century, Pablo Picasso was inspired by the great Masters of European painting – and, in turn challenged the way we look at them. ‘Picasso: Challenging the Past’ explores how he reproduced and developed new takes on works by El Greco, Velázquez, Rembrandt, Manet and Cézanne amongst others.

All of these artists are represented by major paintings at the National Gallery.  Displaying some 60 works by Picasso, this exhibition invites visitors to re-explore the National Gallery’s permanent collection in the light of Picasso’s fascination with the Old Masters.

The exhibition is organised thematically, revealing how Picasso repeatedly returned to these great paintings, including Velázquez’s ‘Las Meninas’ and Manet’s ‘Déjeuner sur l’Herbe’, reproducing them as his personal style developed.

Until 7th June
