The NPG's story began in 1856, over 150 years ago when the original founders of the Gallery decided to start collecting the portraits of 'the most eminent persons in British history'.

The role of the NPG remains the same today – telling the story of the nation through the people who shaped it. Following three years of closure that saw the most extensive redevelopment of our building since 1896, we're excited to have reopened our doors this year.

Hear from our Director Nicholas Cullinan as he shares more about this transformation – which included a complete rehang of our Collection combined with the refurbishment of the building.
