Horniman Museum


Second on my adventures was the Horniman Museum, which I have to say was a really fascinating place. It's tiny, but packs in exhibitions which are at the very least as good, if not better than the Natural History Museum. They have a fascinating collection of African artefacts and tremendously detailed information on the subjects. I think I found out more specific details here than in all 4 of the books I have read so far. This has contributed to my research into the meaning and designs of masks and I shall soon develop an in depth guide which will inform the next stage of this project.
