We will be in London during the times mentioned and have tickets to see the Caravaggio exhibit at the National Gallery, though I believe they are only bringing in one painting.
What other exhibits are happening that people are going to or look interesting?
I went to the Time Out London site but had to navigate so many ads and couldn’t tell what might be interesting.
Thanks!

There is a Sargent exhibition at Tate Britain until July if his art is of interest to you.

I will see the Tate Britain, Sargent Exhibition listed above. The fashion angle is just a theme to highlight his paintings. He tended to portray rich clothing as lovingly as his rich patrons. Below are some others I am going to catch.

not classically considered art, but close enough:

National Portrait Gallery, Henry VIII 6 Lives. I think I should probably book "Six the Musical" just to get over the sadness of this one. I hate this king, not just for his wives and many others killed, but for the many buildings he turned to rubble.

And ..., just noticed Angelica Kaufmann at the Royal Academy and Kandinsky and the Blue Rider at the Tate Modern. I'm going to run out of time. So much.

These special exhibitions are, in my experience, always well worth the money and really excellently put together. Check out individual museum websites for the full programme. There may be something that interests you that isn’t art, eg the Life in the Roman Army exhibit at the British Museum. I’m really keen to get to that one.
