A compact but world-class collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces — Manet's Bar at the Folies-Bergère, Van Gogh's Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear, and Cézanne's Card Players all hang here. Housed in the magnificent Somerset House, it's intimate enough to see every work properly without fatigue. Entry costs around £10-£12 but the quality-to-crowd ratio is exceptional.
