After the Tower I went over to the small art gallery at Somerset House, as it had received excellent reviews. The gallery is small, but full of excellent works of art. There was a special exhibit of Picasso's 1901 works which was excellent. The highlight was Manet's
A Bar at the Folies-Bergère.
This is the best type of art gallery, only containing really good works, no "filler". The way you don't waste energy looking at things that aren't that good.

Then I walked over to the Twinings Tea Shop, which has occupied the same premises since 1706.
