The Wallace Collection is one of the greatest of all private art collections. It was bequeathed to the British nation in 1897 by the widow of Sir Richard Wallace, a notable collector of works of art. Among its many exquisite pieces are 17th and 18th century paintings, porcelain furniture, and a remarkable display of armory. The institute safeguards this unique collection, making it accessible for the present and preserving it for the future.
