Museum of London new exhibition
March 14 2011
Picture: Museum of London. Detail from 'Buy a Rat or a Mouse Trap?' by Rowlandson.
This looks like it's worth a visit; a new exhibition at the Museum of London of rarely seen paintings, drawings and prints showing how London's poor were depicted from the 17th to the 19th century. Exhibition curator Francis Marshall said;
'The Museum of London’s extensive art collection contains many items which are rarely displayed for conservation reasons. This show offers the chance to see some of our gems: delicate watercolours and prints depicting gritty London subject matter.'
Entry is free, and the show runs from 25th March to 31st July 2011.
