Researcher-led display talks: The Bigger Picture

Join for a free talk about the research behind our Dividend Day display

About the event

Join us on one of our introductory talks about our display, The Bigger Picture, which explores a painting from our collection. The painting depicts a group of people inside one of the public offices at the Bank of England.

But who were these people, and why were they visiting the Bank of England in the Victorian era?

Talks will last approximately 20 minutes. They are free, and no booking is necessary. Please arrive 10 minutes early to avoid queues as you enter the museum.
