A Photo a Day 2020 #55

Plaques

Another V&A photo today: these plaques are on the walls in the Medieval and Renaissance Gallery (one of the large open halls). I don't know much about them, but I was drawn to their colour and the creepy, life-like carvings.

Globe

Another shot from the V&A today, but this time a modern piece. This globe was installed in 2015 as a nod to the themes of the Enlightenment. The light and shadow worked well as a black and white photo.

A Photo a Day 2020 #50

Artefacts

I recently went to the V&A (Victroian and Albert) in Knightsbridge, London. There is an impressive collection of artefacts, paintings and curiosities from across history. These plates got my attention and I like the fact that the man's legs are reflected in the top of the cabinet-- if you've seen my photos before, you might know that I have a penchant for reflections.
