It’s coming! Starting this Friday (13th Jan) until 23 march 2012, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery has the “Ten Drawings by Leonardo da Vinci: A Diamond Jubilee Celebration” in order that “To celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of Her Majesty The Queen, ten of the Royal Collection’s finest drawings by the Renaissance master Leonardo da Vinci “
Also looking forward to the “Study day” which I hope will give me something more than wondering around blindly.
The museum is doing the clever thing, in offering “out of hours” guided tour at various days and times during the exhibit. Ok, they cost £10, buti hope that some of that goes towards the museum itself. Arts funding budgets have been slashed in the last few years, so anything to support local museums (whose general access is usually free)
