Hals, Merry officer.

 

 

Almost a well-kept secret, the Wallace collection is situated in a quiet square. It is full of the finest Dutch art, including the outstanding work is by Hals: a Merry Officer. Plus great works from other schools. Plus great collections of ancient armour, weapons, the Arts of War, plus lots of strange and wonderful items. A quirky collection!

Building: the former grand ‘townhouse’ of the Seymour family, Marquesses of Hertford. The collection comprises a world-famous range of fine and decorative arts from the 15th to the 19th centuries with large holdings of French 18th-century paintings, furniture, arms & armour, porcelain and Old Master paintings arranged into 25 galleries.
