The British Museum, May 2019

The British Museum is dedicated to human history art and culture and sighted in the Bloomsbury area of London, United Kingdom. It was the first public museum in the world opening in 1759 after being established in 1753 based on the collection of Sir Hans Sloane. It owns a number of objects from all civilisations around the world, sometimes in controversial circumstances.

The 17 pictures below were taken using a Nikon d3300 SLR on the 25th May 2019. They can also be seen on my Clickasnap profile where they are full size, resolution and un-watermarked.
