OVER A MILLION VISITORS TO IRELAND’S NATIONAL GALLERY
For the third consecutive year and driven by critically successful exhibitions the National Gallery of Ireland welcomed over one million visitors in 2025. Shows like Turner’s Watercolours: Scotland’s Vaughan Bequest; Mainie Jellett and Evie Hone, The Art of Friendship and Picasso, From the Studio were a major factor. The exciting 2026 programme is highlighted by the first exhibition in Ireland of Swedish modernist Hilma af Klint (1862-1944), a celebration of William Blake and his contemporaries, an exhibition marking the 400th anniversary of Jan Steen, a celebration of European prints and drawings from Rembrandt to Matisse and an exploration of the photography of John Minihan. Pictured here is Harry Clarke’s Faust dating to 1924-25, one of a number of key acquisitions made by the gallery last year.
