Sheffield Galleries and Museums Trust

The Modern British Collection at the Sheffield Galleries and Museums Trust is one of the most important in the country outside of the Tate Gallery. It inclues works by many of Britain's most significant 20th century artists including Gwen John, Sir Stanley Spencer, David Bomberg, Henry Moore, Frank Auerbach and John Hoyland. Paintings by artists such as Cezanne and Bonnard are included in the European 20th Century collection. Other key artists, including Dali, Miro, Picasso, Schiele, Toulouse-Lautrec and Vuillard, are represented by works on paper. The development of painting in the 18th and 19th centuries is illustrated through the works of a number of significant artists. These include Thomas Gainsborough, JMW Turner, Tissot and the Pre-Raphaelite artists Burne-Jones, Rossetti and Millais. Significant works by English, Spanish, Dutch and Italian 16th century painters are the oldest in the city's collection. Galleries include the Graves Art Gallery, Sheffield and the Mappin Art Gallery.
