Word origin

The word 'gallery' originated from the Middle English 'galerie', which came from the Old French 'galerie', and ultimately from the Medieval Latin 'galeria'. The term has been used since the 15th century to refer to a covered walkway or passageway, eventually evolving to represent an exhibition space for art.
