Sightseeing in Oxford - Part 4


This is the Ashmolean Museum



First thing you see when you go into the museum is this chappy on a plinth. He looks kinda chilly standing there to me.



This is the human figure gallery on the ground floor



English Stumpwork in the Textile Gallery and a Norse Runestone dedicated to Father, Mother and Sister




These are some early examples of money. I don't fancy carrything this around in my pocket



This is the museum's Japanese teahouse and a Georgian dessert table



Now this fella has the right idea


This one's a bit moody


*phew* its a long walk to the Pre Raphaelite gallery but its worth it to see this stunning painted cabinat and Persephone
