STARA KOLEKCJA – NOWA ARCHITEKTURA DULWICH PICTURE GALLERY W LONDYNIE

The article presents the history of the Dulwich Picture Collection in London. The gallery building, erected in 1813 and designed by the prominent British architect Sir John Soane, is regarded as an archetype of a picture gallery building. The many additions and extensions to the structure of the building have not spoiled the original edifice; on the contrary, they have boosted its attractiveness and provided it with new functions required in modern museums.
