courtauld gallery and institute in london receives record breaking 30 m donation from reuben foundation 1234757172

London's Courtauld Gallery and Institute has received a £30 million ($40.06 million) donation from the Reuben Foundation, the largest gift in its 93-year history. The foundation, established by billionaire brothers David and Simon Reuben, will also share their extensive art collection to support future exhibitions as part of a long-term partnership. The donation will help fund the refurbishment of the Courtauld's academic wing, which still requires an additional £65 million to complete.
