Your Itinerary

V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum

Start by hearing about the Museum’s founding story and behind the scene’s knowledge about how the museum and its exhibitions operate now, before moving to the beautiful Renaissance Galleries where you will learn how many of today’s everyday ideas and objects we think of as representing ‘home’ had their origins in the Renaissance world. Using highlights of the collection we will explore how new exciting Renaissance ideas and innovations around international travel and exploration, science and innovation, fashion, food, health and leisure transformed design!

V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum

Next we move to the British Galleries and the Tudor, Stuart and Eighteenth-century sections. From the grand to the humble - a jewelled 17th century ear pick, to the Great Bed of Ware, and the origins and objects of British tea drinking – we will explore the exciting ways design shaped and was shaped by people’s lives in these times.

V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum

Our third act is one of contrasts and variation! We move to the spectacular Victorian Cast Courts to see highlights including full size casts of Michelangelo’s David, Trajan’s Column and Ghiberti’s Gates of Paradise, before contrasting it with the intimate, jewel-box space of the Jewellery Gallery, the vast Raphael Courts, Tipu’s fearsome mechanical tiger, and the Museum’s beautiful tiled Victorian William Morris, Poynter and Gamble tea rooms.
