Exhibition of botanical illustrations from London's V&A Museum
Given that the Barber has only recently reopened following nine months of building improvement work, and that it closes again in early 2025, when the second phase of its redevelopment begins, there really is no better time than right now to discover the venue’s many delights.
Among them, until late autumn, is The Hidden Lives Of Plants, a selection of botanical imagery from London’s Victoria & Albert Museum.
The featured works have been drawn from the V&A’s collection of almost 1,000 botanical illustrations, ranging from scientific diagrams documenting medicinal plants to merchandising images that adorn seed packets.
