Victoria and Albert Museum London

[FLFunSized]

I’m traveling back to London end of this week and can’t wait for an extended visit to the Victoria and Albert Museum. They’ve got a nice collection from Rodin. I became an admirer of his when I was in art school. His life story is really amazing and inspiring. My favorite of his sculptures is “Age of Bronze”, not just for the subject matter but for its own story and his masterful craftsmanship.

Don't miss the Raphael Cartoons, the Cast Rooms (fakes 😇), and the Glass Galleries (especially the Roman glass)...    if you have an hour to spare - walking to the Natural History Museum and visiting the wildlife photographer of the year exhibition is well worth your time, and if you have a few minutes more go up to the vault on the first floor for the coloured diamond exhibition.

Room 91 with the jewels and tiaras was some nice eye candy for me.  Also rooms 65-69 for English silver
