I love this work - You can hardly get closer to the original

[chedda]

Thanks for the comments guys. Yes the design really works and produces even diffuse light so necessary for a gallery.

The lighting is especially well chosen. What did you use here in your renderer? Is it a HDR lighting only?

Great work as usual Simon.

I have one question however based on the actual building, does the big windows letting UV light not damage artwork?

[chedda]

Yes it's just a HDRI for lighting hornoxx. Solo i think the lower square windows are risky considering sun damage. The upper larger openings provide a reflected diffuse north light so shouldn't be so destructive. I arranged the paintings so i may have placed them too close to the lower windows in reality.
