The National Gallery and HP bring works of art to the streets of London

The streets of London’s West End have been turned into a gallery; 44 perfect, framed reproductions of National Gallery paintings now hang in the most unexpected places between Soho and Seven Dials.

Michelangelo, Caravaggio and Rembrandt have all become street artists vying for the attention of passers-by.The Grand Tour encourages people to make the short journey to the National Gallery to see the originals for free. Each picture is in a replica frame with an information plaque next to it, just as in the real Gallery and a phone number for an audio guide to the work.
