This pair are equally good too - intriguing wooden figures who may once have stood at the entrance to either a ward or the hospital. The shorter figure may have been placed in a high position. In 1657 the hospital paid for them to be painted #barts900 #histmed

My final day trail begins with the Hogarth stair - quite a few people taking a last look at the museum @BHAandM #histmed #Barts900
