Overlooking York's Exhibition Square, the building which now houses York Art Gallery opened its doors in 1879 for the second Yorkshire Fine Art and Industrial Exhibition. In 1892 it became the city's art gallery. Its collection spans 600 years, and ranges from 14th-century Italian panels and 17th-century Dutch masterpieces to Victorian narrative paintings and 20th-century works by LS Lowry and David Hockney. Highlights from the gallery's outstanding collection of 20th-century ceramics are also on display. The recently refurbished main-floor gallery is used to display temporary and touring exhibitions.
