National Gallery of Ireland

This impressive collection incorporates some 2,500 paintings, as well as watercolours, drawings, prints and sculpture. Although Irish painting holds pride of place, all major European schools of painting are well represented. The award-winning Millennium Wing, a modern architectural masterpiece, showcases Irish art in the first half of the 20th century and houses a sculpture gallery and temporary exhibitions.
