Covering all four of the Royal Museums Greenwich sites – the National Maritime Museum, the Royal Observatory, the Queen’s House and Cutty Sark – this fully illustrated volume tells stories of the sea, space and the stars.
The book features some of the most exceptional and surprising objects from the Museum’s vast and varied collections, including the coat worn by Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805, John Harrison’s revolutionary marine timekeepers and the iconic Armada Portrait of Queen Elizabeth I. Among its other highlights are an intriguing globe of the planet Mars, a musical toy pig whose tune calmed children in one of Titanic’s lifeboats and a groundbreaking map of the Moon that was used to help plan the Apollo Moon landings. Adi Yeta is a full-scale drua (canoe) made by contemporary Fijian
boat builders and a portrait of an eighteenth-century naval officer was recently discovered to be a longlost work of Thomas Gainsborough.
Treasures of Royal Museums Greenwich also showcases some of the most exciting acquisitions of recent years, including artworks by contemporary artists Yinka Shonibare CBE and Tania Kovats.
This beautifully presented book is the ideal way to discover the treasures of the Royal Museums Greenwich collection.
