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.
