The Wallace Collection, Hertford House, Oxford Street, W1U 3BN

Exhibitions: History

How Much: Free!
Oh awesome! Vaguely tieing in with the ghastly 2012 Olympics, the Wallace Collection host an exhibition dedicated to the noble sport of fencing (it was one of the nine original Olympic sports apparently).

On display are a host of beautiful objects - swords obviously, but also illustrations, portraits and prints that explore the social and political side of this most evocative of sports.

En garde!

Until 16.09.12.
