Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

An exhibition of 60 Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings from Swiss private collections, many of which have been exhibited in this or any other country. Artists include Cezanne, Degas, Gauguin, Van Gogh, Manet, Monet, Pissarro, Sisley and Toulouse Lautrec.

Van Gogh garnered the most votes from the critics. The Times put Cezanne in the runner-up position and trailing at the rear came Renoir. The Telegraph opined that this "lovely little exhibition" makes you remember that the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists "really were extraordinarily important, gloriously enjoyable artists".

The Sackler Galleries, Royal Academy of Arts, London W1 (0171-439 7438).

A rare chance to see superb works often hidden from view. Would you
