Check out our Archives and Special Collections Advent Calendar

 

Following on from the success of our ‘Going Wild in the Archives’ exhibition earlier this year, we thought we’d give our festive Archives and Special Collections Advent Calendar a wildlife theme. 

 

 

 

Every day in the run up to Christmas, a new image from our collections relating to the natural world will be revealed including animals, butterflies and flowers from our Victorian illustrated books and some weird and wonderful drawings from our Norman McLaren Archive!
