Superb pair of exhibitions British Library! Apologies for blurry photos but some real gems included seeing the Luttrell Psalter for real, Hildegard of Bingen's (absolute legend) Book of Divine Works, Margaret of Anjou's lion's skull and the smell of a Julian of Norwich vision!

Very excited for this!

Amazing!
