Before the photograph, painting alone offered recorded evidence of what people or events looked like. Categories of paintings are very varied from portraiture to landscapes, still lives to genre pictures, to modern British abstract paintings. RAMM's collection covers all these areas across many periods.  The collection contains works by Thomas Gainsborough, Thomas Patch, Francis Hayman, Sir Joshua Reynolds, Benjamin Robert Haydon, Francis Danby, William Powell Frith, William Etty, Stanhope Forbes, Terry Frost, Duncan Grant, amongst others.
