Fine Art Society, Art gallery in City of Westminster, England.

The Fine Art Society occupies a Victorian building with ornate architectural details, featuring large display windows and stone decorative elements across the facade.

Founded in February 1876, the Fine Art Society became the first gallery to introduce single-artist exhibitions in London, starting with James McNeill Whistler's etchings.

The gallery maintains a collection of British artworks dating from 1600 to present day, displaying paintings, sculptures, and prints from various artistic movements.

The Grade II listed building offers multiple exhibition spaces across different floors, enabling visitors to view contemporary and historical art pieces simultaneously.

The gallery sent artist James McNeill Whistler to Venice in 1880 to create new works, resulting in a collection of etchings that changed British printing techniques.
