The Perth Museum in Scotland will be opening a new exhibition dedicated to the iconographic and cultural history of the Unicorn in March. Here's an article published by artnet which explains a little more about the prize exhibits on display, which includes a treasure trove of historic artworks.
According to the museum's website:
Unicorn is the first major UK exhibition to explore the cultural history of Scotland’s national animal from antiquity to the present day. Through the material culture of this mythical beast the exhibition will explore themes such as Scottish Royalty and national symbolism that also relate to the objects and stories on display in the new permanent galleries, including the Stone of Destiny.
The exhibition will open on 30th March 2024.
