Please include in your email the following details:

  • Object name and accession number (if applicable)
  • A description of the image that you want to use

We make a charge of £35 for supplying the first image, plus an additional charge for subsequent images dependent on how much staff time is required. Please contact us for an estimate of costs.

We do not have high quality digital images of all objects available in stock and new photography may be required.
