National Portrait Gallery to host Freud exhibition

Luxury London hotel

Event: Lucian Freud Portraits
Dates: February 9th to May 27th
Venue: National Portrait Gallery

Couples looking to enjoy a Valentine's Day stay in London may want to take the opportunity to see a new art exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery.

People could wake up in the luxury surroundings of a 5 star hotel in the city and then enjoy a healthy breakfast before heading to see the exhibition of Lucian Freud Portraits.

The artist is best known for realistic work which captures nuisances many others miss in a wide range of subjects including the Queen.

"His friends, family and acquaintances have always been eclectic, drawn from all walks of life and this is reflected in the variety of faces and bodies that occupy Freud's paintings," stated curator Sarah Howgate.

The National Portrait Gallery is a romantic venue in itself, as it offers visitors stunning views across the London skyline.

Couples may want to follow the exhibition with a meal at a romantic restaurant in London such as Roux at The Landau or a spot of afternoon tea served in Palm Court.

They can then book in for a good night's sleep at a luxury London hotel such as The Langham.
