Paintings Take to London's Streets

Sunday August 19, 2007
The Grand Tour London If you've been in the West End of London recently you might have been surprised to encounter reproductions of paintings from the National Gallery hanging up on buildings. It's part of an exhibition called The Grand Tour taking place on the back streets of Soho, Piccadilly, and Covent Garden.

The paintings will remain on location until the end of August, and if you're just wandering around you'll need to be on the lookout to spot them. Alternatively, print a map. If you can't get to London, take a virtual tour with this Grand Tour Photo Gallery.
