Archives on Show: Photographs

Our Archives on Show events are a chance for us to show you the sheer range of material we hold at The London Archives. In these sessions we will present a display of material for you to browse at your own pace, where staff will be on hand to answer questions. Whether you are new to archives and curious to see what we hold, or you are an experienced researcher that wants to learn more, these relaxed events offer a chance for you to explore our collections by theme and format.

The London Archives holds a vast collection of photographs. This session will introduce some of the highlights of our collection which spans the history of the medium and offers striking images of London and the wider world, captured in the creation of art, but also through the activities of business and commerce.

You can book for a drop-in session at 13:00 and 14:00.
