Over 70 British landscape paintings from Tate will be exhibited in China this April, Shanghai Museum announced Thursday.

The exhibition, "Landscapes of the Mind: Masterpieces from Tate Britain (1700-1980)," will be run from late April to early August in the Shanghai Museum.

The exhibition will feature works of some of the most treasured British artists including Gainsborough, Turner, Constable and Nicholson, and give the audience a glimpse of British history and culture across 300 years.
