Last Chance to See: 'Skin'

This weekend offers your last chance to see 'Skin', Wellcome Collection's current temporary exhibition.

The exhibition draws strongly upon a wide range of material from the Wellcome Library: manuscripts, books, paintings and advertising material. A small sample then, of the Library's enormous holdings on this theme.

If a visit to the exhibition inspires you to seek out more on the topics covered in the exhibition, we may be able to help...
