		The revamped Manchester Art Gallery tells the thumbs-in-astrakhan-collar story of the city's wealth and ambition in the second half of the 19th century and its determined revival over the past 20 years.
		The Athenaeum Club was bought by Manchester city council in 1938, but, to date, used as offices, conservation studios and a store, it has been closed to the public except for one room used as a gallery for temporary exhibitions.
		This wise touch of cultural arm-twisting, plus private patronage from Manchester's industrial rich, ensured that the city art gallery was well stocked with paintings of nymphs, demure-looking women in various states of undress, ambitious portraits and heroic scenes from Shakespeare and the battlefield.

		The rich businessmen in Manchester who made their fortunes from the cotton industry, engineering, wool, sugar etc. wanted to create a cultural institution for the rich citizens of Manchester, a kind of gentlemen's club.
		The building started as the "Royal Manchester Institution" (George IV granted his royal patronage to the Manchester Institution and the prefix "royal" was added to its name) and was built between 1829 and 1835 by an architect called Charles Berry, most famous for building the Houses of Parliament in London.
		In 1882 the Royal Manchester Institution and its collection was taken over by the city and became the Manchester Art Gallery.

		The new gallery spaces themselves have rather fussy ceiling arrangements, as tends to be the case with contemporary museums.
		Decorative arts are another strength, and the strategy of exhibiting furniture and ceramics alongside paintings works well - though a bit of American Pop art furniture called a Marshmallow Love Seat makes the surrounding pictures look rather pale.
		As a matter of fact, Manchester could do with some newer art, since it has an excellent collection of British art from the 19th and early 20th centuries, but grinds to a halt in the Seventies.

		Pre-Raphaelite Women Artists is the Manchester City Art Gallery's exhibition of pictures by the forgotten wives, sisters and colleagues of the Pre-Raphaelites.
		As a number of examples in this show demonstrate, an artist who had enough money to study at the art academies in Munich and Paris was likely to be much more proficient in her craft than one educated here in Britain.
		As is often the case with contemporary art, when it comes to Pre-Raphaelitism, enthusiasts seem to be incapable of discriminating between the good, the bad and the egregious.
