Print and Drawing Study Rooms

The National Gallery's collection of prints, drawings, miniatures, and illustrated books contains over 120,000 European and American works on paper and vellum, dating from the eleventh century to the present day. In addition to its strengths in western art, the Gallery also has a small selection of works on paper from Asia, Latin America, Russia, and the Near East. The Gallery frequently exhibits selected works from its holdings as well as loans from other public and private collections. Please consult the Current Exhibitions schedule for information on such shows.
