  • Tudor and Stuart Seafarers – New gallery at the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich

    The National Maritime Museum, in Greenwich, London, has just let us know about their brand new gallery, ‘Tudor & Stuart Seafarers’. The museum says of the gallery:

    “It includes sections covering a range of different subjects, from the voyages of John Cabot to the defeat of the Spanish Armada, and features many fascinating Tudor & Stuart objects, from early maps of the Americas to the coconut cup given to Sir Francis Drake by Elizabeth I. The gallery also has numerous audio-visual and interactive features, including a dockyard model brought to life by the Pepper’s Ghost technique. It is a permanent gallery and so is free to visit.”

    It is open 10am-5pm daily.
