“This year, the Museum of London welcomes an exciting new exhibition, delving into the mind of the world’s most famous fictional detective; Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes – London’s first on the detective since 1951. Going beyond film and fiction, visitors to the museum will be transported to the real Victorian London – the backdrop for many of Conan Doyle’s stories. Here are just some of the early photography, paintings, artefacts as well as more recent props on display to see. The exhibition opens to the public on Friday 17 October, at the Museum of London.”
