The Schorr Collection

About The collection

The Schorr Collection is a privately owned art collection, which has been developed over the last 50 years, and now principally comprises almost 450 Old Master and 19th century paintings. It ranges from 15th century devotional images to Impressionist landscapes. Notable artists include Cranach, Tintoretto, El Greco, Veronese, Rubens, van Dyck, Flinck, Hogarth, Ingres, Turner and Pissarro. In addition, there are extensive holdings of works on paper. The Schorr Collection has always sought to share works for public display, wherever possible, and encourages support for educational and academic research. Approximately half the collection is on long term loan to museums and institutions in the UK, Europe and America while short term loans are also facilitated for exhibitions representing featured artists from the collection.
