The Scottish National Gallery houses a collection of fine art from the early Renaissance to the end of the nineteenth century. For a nation of Scotland’s size, the collection is rightfully regarded as one of the best in the world. The Royal Scottish Academy, which is an independent organization, provides a premier venue for international exhibitions.
Located in the heart of Edinburgh, the Scottish National gallery includes exceptional must sees.
