Fitting out the galleries…

Painters, decorators, shopfitters – they’re all hard at work now preparing our Yorkshire Museum galleries to be filled with fascinating things to see once we reopen on 1 August.

Here’s three pictures taken yesterday showing:
1. painting the room which will hold our dinosaur footprint trackway (you can see it at the far end of the room surrounded by spotlights);
2. a frame going up to hold three huge sea reptile fossils - the ichthyosaur, the plesiosaur and the pliosaur;
3. a lone Roman fresco already up on the wall as fitters get to work on part of the Roman York gallery.
