Maps and that



Went to the Magnificent Maps exhibition at the British Library a while back and it’s definitely worth an hour of your time.

There are some beautiful, intricate, ancient artefacts in there mixing art, history and politics. And it’s also fun just spotting somewhere near where you live in maps hundreds and hundreds of years old.

Saying all that my favourite was still the above by artist Grayson Perry- who studied art at the same bog standard Essex community college that I went to.
