Winter online exhibitionHere's a chilling online exhibition that you can enjoy from the warmth and comfort of your own home, without going outside into the snow. The following items include the instruments used to measure cold weather and things that we use to warm ourselves up during winter, including items used to serve hot food and drinks. There are also some examples of animal and plant life - as well as a few brave human beings - that have adapted to survive in freezing conditions. Everything is from the diverse collections at National Museums Liverpool. Some of the objects are on display, others are currently in storage, while many form part of the vast collection of research items held at the museums. The only place that you can see them all together is here on this website. GalleryClick on the thumbnails below to see each object.
