Archive Mystery Klaxon!
We need your help with the identity of this large cartoon (detail pictured) in our archive. Do you recognise the figure it depicts or the artist's hand?
Our research suggests a 19th century date with a possible literary or musical theme. Any ideas?

This WORK OF THE WEEK is giving us autumn vibes!
Time Flies by William Gerard Barry is one of the most beloved works in the collection. Exhibited @royalacademy in 1887, the painting glows with seasonal colours as it meditates on the passage of time.
Catch it in SEEN, NOT HEARD!

On closer inspection, the figure on the right is more than ready to make her play, while an open scissors dangling from her left hand suggests the potential for domestic drama...
