Tate Britain Museum has recently reopened to the public after a two-year remodeling project led by architect Adam Caruso. The remodeling included the restoration of the building's main entrance, on the banks of the Thames. Also, a spiral staircase was built at the center of the lower-ground rotunda, combining the most modern architectural concepts with old sections of this historic building.
The museum's main access point, known as the Millbank Entrance, is now lighted by a new crystal skylight that filters light from the outside and illuminates a white-and-black tile floor. The building is structures in three levels. The lower level hosts the museum's restaurant and cafeteria, its education center, and a new gallery; the museum's British art collection is distributes in the middle level; the upper level features a meeting room and space for the museum's workers.
Tate Britain holds the world's largest collection of British art from 1545 to the present, with approximately 500 works by artists such as Francis Bacon, Damien Hirst, David Hockney, Gwen John, Stanley Spencer, and L.S. Lowry. Works by artists like Henry Moore (1898-1986), J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851), and William Blake (1757-1827) remain on display in the museum's main galleries.
