Archivist @ The British School at Rome. Curious by nature.

#britishmuseum #photography has an important role in @britishmuseum. Roger Fenton, employed in 1857, took some of the earliest photos in the building & another photographer, Frederick York, did a photo survey in 1875. You can read my blog here: https://t.co/SLvgDUhuuA
