I went today to the Dulwich Picture Gallery. I'd never been to Dulwich before so that was a treat. Dulwich Picture Gallery is pretty unique, being the first public picture gallery ever. It is a small gallery but it has quite a collection of mostly 17th century paintings including a room of Poussins. Worth checking out. See here.
