The Courtauld Institute of Art is one of the world’s leading centres for the study of art history and conservation. It prides itself on offering a truly memorable learning experience and is based at Vernon Square in the vibrant King's Cross area of London.

The Courtauld Institute of Art
The Courtauld Institute of Art is the world’s leading centre for the study of the history and conservation of art and architecture. Its Gallery houses one of Britain’s best-loved collections. Through its unique integration of activities, facilities and resources, The Courtauld provides an exceptional environment for research, learning and professional development.

The Courtauld is an independent college of the University of London. In January 2019, we moved to our home until 2023/24, at Vernon Square, King’s Cross. This move marks the start of our exciting transformational Courtauld Connects project. A key part of the project will be a major refurbishment of The Courtauld’s magnificent buildings in the North Block of Somerset House. We are working with Stirling Prize-winning architects Witherford Watson Mann to carefully restore our important Grade One listed building, as well as transform the experience of The Courtauld for our students and the public through improved access and re-awakening of some of the beautiful spaces throughout the building.

Courtauld faculty teach and supervise research from western antiquity to the global present.  Through its alumni, The Courtauld generates an evolving community of specialists who shape the international art world.

Facilities for students are exceptional, including outstanding libraries,  the Research Forum which offers access to visiting speakers from around the world and The Courtauld Gallery‘s outstanding collection of paintings, drawings and prints, sculpture and decorative arts.

The Courtauld Gallery, is famous for its iconic Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces, as well as numerous other important paintings and works of art from the Renaissance through to the 20th century.  Its research-based temporary exhibitions are small in scale, and designed to offer both pleasure to the eye and stimulation for the mind. The Courtauld Gallery and Courtauld Shop are currently closed until Spring 2021 while we undertake our Courtauld Connects transformation project.

Public lectures, short courses and summer schools also allow members of the public to share in the wealth of expertise at The Courtauld.
