Tate Britain

Tate Britain is a part of the Tate Gallery in Great Britain, along with Tate Modern, Tate Liverpool and Tate St. Ives[?]. It became "Tate Britain" rather than simply "the Tate Gallery" when Tate Modern opened in 2000.

Tate Britain is the national gallery of British art from 1500 to the present day. It includes work by William Blake, John Constable, Thomas Gainsborough, William Hogarth, Dante Gabriel Rossetti and J.M.W. Turner.
