London Museums: Victoria and Albert

Opened in , the Victoria and Albert Museum bills itself as "the world's greatest museum of art and design." 

While I perhaps don't agree with the somewhat arrogant motto, it's a beautiful museum.

This painting was hidden above a door, I absolutely loved it.

If you're thinking of visiting, keep in mind that like most museums, it's giant.  Huge.  One could spend a single day here, all day.  The nice thing is that entrance is free, so if you want to do a bit here and there, your wallet won't mind.
