The Imperial War Museum is better known for its displays of the mechanics and artefacts of war, but it also contains some notable works of art. Most of these can be found in two galleries on the second floor that are dedicated to art from World War I and World War II.
One of the most powerful paintings is John Singer Sargeant's 'Gassed', which depicts a line of blinded soldiers staggering through a battlefield.

For a free museum, the Imperial War Museum is an amazing day out! I spent a good 4 hours in this place, and it was amazing! Part war transport museum, part history lesson, part immersive experience (I was in a trench that eerily felt safe!), and part in memory of those lost in the holocaust.
Yes they had an art gallery but that was just the tip of the ice-berg, and to be honest the least thought provoking out of everything else there! A fantastic day out!
