Slow Looking: Conflict in Europe

Join us for a guided tour of the art in our Conflict in Europe gallery, exploring the works on display through mindful observation and reflection.

For centuries, the British Army has operated across the globe, but nowhere has conflict been more decisive to Britain’s fate than in Europe.

These campaigns have inspired a wide range of artworks, depicting dramatic events and offering glimpses into the personal stories of those involved.

On this slow-looking tour, a member of our Community Engagement team will introduce a selection of paintings from the Conflict in Europe gallery.

Visitors will be encouraged to take their time with each artwork, observing the details and reflecting on the thoughts and emotions it evokes.
