Portrait Gallery of Canada
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Portrait Gallery of Canada (French: Le Musée du portrait du Canada) is a major Canadian art museum specialising in portraiture located in Ottawa Ontario. It was established on 23 January 2001 by the federal Government of Canada as a programme of Library and Archives Canada. At the present time, a renovation is in progress of a heritage building located at 100 Wellington Street, the former location of the American Embassy. This location, which is just across the street from the Parliament Buildings, will serve as the home of gallery's collection upon its completion, projected to take place in 2007.
