How stable are the colours in these against normal museum lighting? We made the trip to the National Waterfront Museum in Swansea last week mostly to see their Blaschkas (they even proudly note them in their paper flyers). After finally finding them, they were in a poorly lit horizontal display case, as if they were parchment or fabric. Couldn't even see the things. I don't recall that sort of poor display for the Harvard collection, which I saw a few years ago. The National Waterfront Museum struck us as a particularly poor sort of museum. Huge space, lots of money spent, but only one gallery worth looking at and the rest was one of those museums that tries to pretend to be a website instead. Very disappointed.

This article seems to be written in a NPOV about figures that are no longer living. I'm removing the peacock tab, Slacker13 (talk) 00:25, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
