#frankenbook! Check out this spooky homemade repair on an 1823 bible. While it may be a little wonky, it is important evidence of the book's history. We are opting to keep it in place to tell the story of the bible's life. #spinetingling #rarebooks #bookconservation

Recognise this? It the fresco painted on the wall at the top of the staircase at the entrance to @BM_AG, painted by Joseph Southall, 1914. And we're also showing the design for it. Never spotted the fresco? Head up the main entrance stairs or view it from the vestibule, 2nd floor
