Sir William Burrell gave his amazing collection of over 9,000 works of art to the City of Glasgow in 1944. The collection is vast and is contained in a museum known as The Burrell which was purpose built for the collection and opened in 1983. Architectural features from the collection have been integrated into the structure of the building, like the windows you can see here.
