Collingwood - A Northumbrian Abroad
23 Jan - 27 Jun 2010
An exhibition to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Admiral Lord Collingwood's death at sea on 7 March 1810.
Using objects, paintings and extracts from his letters it explores not only Collingwood's long naval career away from his home but also the influence on him of his lifelong love of Northumberland and the friends and family he left behind.
The exhibition is part of the Collingwood 2010 Festival - visit the festival website here.
