| Weeping Window, Imperial War Museum, London, (V Oxberry) |
On Wednesday 17 October, I visited the Imperial War Museum in London which has the Weeping Window poppies on display. This forms a nice bookend to the centenary period for me, having seen Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red at the Tower of London in 2014. It was very evocative to have the poppies pouring from a small window in the tower, as though from a puncture wound.

Aside from the permanent First World War gallery, the IWM has several special exhibits commemorating the war, its end, and its aftermath. From a sound and video installations, to photographic evidence of the different nationalities returning home, and lands still in conflict. You can find out more on their website.
