Menagerie brings together 17 historical and contemporary paintings, prints, photographs and sculpture from the Gallery's Permanent Collections, all of which feature an animal of some description, from cats, dogs and birds to horses, bulls, fish and even a hippopotamus!
Some of the earliest paintings ever made depicted animals and, as this exhibition illustrates, artistic interest in the creatures that share our world has not diminished over the years.
