An informative guide to the collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum, the world’s leading museum of art and design.
The book features the most spectacular holdings from the V&A archives and building, and explains how the Museum works to enrich people’s lives by promoting the practice of applied art and design, increasing our knowledge, understanding and enjoyment of the designed world.
Unlike a traditional ‘guide’, the book reflects what the V&A is about and for, and in doing so captures a slice of the designed world around us. V&A: A Souvenir is a desirable memento for visitors to the Museum as well as those wishing to understand more about the V&A’s world-class collections and design values.
