Our galleries are quietest on weekdays and weekend mornings. At busy times, particularly on Saturdays, you may need to queue for our temporary exhibitions.

We’re undertaking some research with website visitors to learn more about how people find access-related information provided by museums. This survey shouldn't take longer than 10 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time!

<p>Written in a neat humanistic hand. Illustrated with 38 well executed pen drawings of constellations, etc., the stars in red. The manuscript is foliated 120r-153v, so it was originally part of a larger work. The illustrations are mostly in the style of the printed editions of Manilius, Hyginus and Aratus.</p>
