The @V_and_A acquired a number of objects from Minard's collection at its dispersal at auction in 1883. Wonder if anyone can spot anything here?
Hard to top this case in the house-museum of architect and collector Louis-François-Martial Minard (1801-1875) in Ghent. Minard collected objects associated with the guilds in Ghent, as well as dec arts from the Medieval period onwards.
@charlielavin @CJoyJohnson @lucyjwest is a CDP student at Leeds, The Bowes Museum and the National Gallery. We'll let her know you are interested!
We're so thrilled with the positive feedback and so much enthusiasm about cases! Thank you!
Final remarks on @CasesConference before our museum tour and archive session @TheBowesMuseum - thanks for organising a fantastic conference @LHMacnaughton @CJoyJohnson @Smnspier
@LHMacnaughton does a brilliant job tying together the themes and issues over the last two days and the potential scope for further study that our very niche conference has opened up! #casesconference #casesaregreat
Brilliant to present at the @CasesConference today held at the beautiful @TheBowesMuseum Great day had by all! #casesconference #domesticspace #institutionalcase
We're very grateful for the funding we've received from @CDPConnect @ahrcpress @TheBowesMuseum @DurhamCNCS and the Furniture History Society in support of #casesconference Thank you!
Kicking off our final panel this morning @CasesConference is the wonderful @drboullelady from @WMCurators chatting all things Boulle and the case furniture, pedestals and commodes which he made for the display of objets d’art
The final paper in the museums session @TheBowesMuseum @CasesConference comes from Sonja Taylor @burrellcollect @GlasgowMuseums who is the Special Projects Officer on the design of the huge Burrell Refurbishment Project
Next up Penny Hines the Curator of Carlyle House @nationaltrust @NTCarlylesHouse discusses the changing displays and furniture cases of the house over time @CasesConference
Back at the fabulous @TheBowesMuseum for Day 2 of the @CasesConference - starting off with Senior Conservation Scientist @EnglishHeritage David Thickett discussing the re-fitting of historic showcases
It's day 2 #casesconference thank you to those live-tweeting!
A fantastic paper from conference organiser @Smnspier from @FAHACS & @artmarketleeds on the early formation of the @bowesmuseum and the practical need for furniture cases for the museum in its earliest days @CasesConference
Arrived at the lovely Bowes Musuem for @CasesConference - thanks to @LHMacnaughton for some fantastic opening remarks making a case for the importance of cases!! #casestudiesconference
What is the function of a museum case if the object no longer exists, has been lost, stolen or purposefully removed? asks @tinyhistorian @CasesConference
The starting point for @tinyhistorian was the empty box for a pistol in @SoaneMuseum The box remains, but where is the pistol? #casesconference
Case aficionados take a lunchtime walk to hear from Joanna Hashagen @TheBowesMuseum about the refurbished fashion and textiles gallery #casesconference
Can’t wait to hear it!
Kate Hill will be speaking at @CasesConference today at the Bowes Museum. She will be talking about the rejection of cases by museums in the twentieth century, as in this display from inter-war Liverpool Museum.
Bright and early start up to the Bowes Museum @TheBowesMuseum on the train up from London for @CasesConference - Speeding along the east coast doing a peer-review of a journal article on the sculptural aesthetics of porcelain and hopefully finishing off a book review!
My first conference of 2020 is this weekend up in the gorgeous @TheBowesMuseum @CasesConference - Really looking forward to talking about 'Sèvres-mania' & display methods, including this stunning vase @RCT displayed by Queen Victoria in Marlborough House in 1852 #rethinkceramics
