The Collection started with the foundation of the Royal Academy in 1768, works of art often being given by the artists themselves. They were envisioned to demonstrate the aptitudes of the British School and offer inspiration for new generations of British artists. It now comprises about 935 paintings, 350 sculptures, 700 plaster casts, 25,000 prints and drawings and 5,000 historic photographs. The Collection’s central emphasis is on British art and artists from the 18th century to the present day. You will find some of these works on display around the building; ranging from the Michelangelo Tondo to the most recent additions to the Collection by Royal Academicians.
