Panel display about the Museum's Fine and Applied Art collections, Lisburn Library, County Antrim
Images in this panel display are drawn from the Museum's wonderful art collections. The Fine Art collection embraces a wide range of paintings, watercolours, prints, drawings and sculptures dating from the late 15th century to the present day, most notably the Irish collection and the 20th century British, European and American works. The Applied Art holdings - ceramics and glass, silver and metalwork, furniture, costume and textiles, jewellery and items relating to childhood - contain particularly important collections of historic and contemporary silver, glass and ceramics, as well as a renowned collection of international and 'High Street' fashion.
