London W/E Part 4
For some unknown reason my computer uploaded these photos in a random order ... so they will get posted as they are!!
They are basically from 4 museums ... I tend to visit the 3 of them each time I am in London, but however many times I visit, there is always something more to see. Sometimes because they have added new displays, sometimes because I am just more observant!!
A 16th century carpet
Close-up of a netzski
A 17th century dress ... and a doll
A spinnet
I am always fascinated by sculpture ... amazing work
Another love of mine is glass
The Science Museum had some sort of display on the sun, which you had to pay to enter ... this was how they were reminding people.
The V&A is certainly a stunning building
The oldest complete set of equine armour (The Wallace Collection)
The Laughing Cavalier
Close-up of another painting, in the Wallace Collection
Above & below are 2 of the rooms from the Collection
He had this made when he was knighted, as that is on his coat of arms
The Wallace Collection is housed in what was a private house
Green Park
Edith Cavell's memorial
I stayed at a different hostel this time, and it was above a pub. We had breakfast in the bar ... and couldn't resist taking this photo of part of their bar sign
