The National Gallery contains one of the greatest collections of White Western European Art in the world. In its approximately 2,300 collection there is an explicit Black presence in around 50 works with an equal number having an implicit Black presence. We will examine the different presences from Kings and Queens, musicians, servants, entertainers to anonymous faces in a crowd. We will look at how that Black presence in White Western European art has been seen or not seen depending on the country and the century.
