Historia
'The Tate Gallery opened in 1897 with a benefaction from Sir Henry Tate. It was initially established as the National Gallery of British Art under the National Gallery Trustees, but the National Gallery and Tate Gallery Act of 1954 established it as an independant institution to house the national collections of British painting and international 20th-century art. Unlike the National Gallery, the Tate's collections include sculptures and graphics.' National Gallery website
