Practical information

Together with curator Rosie Razzall we will have a closer look at a selection of drawings from the museum’s collection. Some of them are damaged and faded, caused by exposure to light. Ultraviolet light shows us more than is apparent to the naked eye. In this tour you’ll don a pair of UV glasses as the secrets are revealed. 

These tours are part of the exhibition Secrets of Italian Drawings. 23 November 2024 up to and including 23 March 2025. Depot.
