We often find ourselves in art galleries and museums during our travels. They offer us refuge, calm, and an enjoyable way to spend a few hours. The Scottish National Gallery in Edinburgh was no exception.
The Scottish National Gallery is centrally located and is home to a fantastic collection of art both painted and sculpted.

The exhibit was thrilling but then I love furniture design and history. Something delightful about seeing the original chairs and tables that have now become iconic.
