A picture of an illuminated manuscript book of the Lindisfarne Gospels, which is lying open in a glass case. The book has black text in Old English and illustrated letters. Above the book is a red sign which reads Art of the Book in white text.
A picture which looks up at a church tower with a clock face on the side, which rises up in a blue, cloudy sky, surrounded by trees with autumn leaves.
