Day Eleven

August 18^th

On our last day in England, we left our luggage in the hotel and went to the Tate Britain museum, which houses British art from the 16^th century to the present day. It has a particularly large collection of Pre-Raphaelite works, before flying home to America. Some of the famous Pre-Raphaelite works we saw at the Tate Britain were: “Ophelia,” by John Everett Millais; “The Lady of Shallott,” “On English Coasts,” by William Holman Hunt; “The Golden Stairs,” by Edward Burne-Jones, and many more. There were also a number of works from other periods and movements in art, including works by William Blake, the Hogarths, Spencer, Gainsborough, and Whistler, and a large Turner collection.

The flight home was more enjoyable than the flight to England, because we had so many interesting new memories...
