Rowling and Jim Kay drawings, manuscripts, some magical objects, Ripley scroll that explains how the magical philosopher's stone is made, and an opportunity to use augmented reality to study the sky at night.
From the exhibition, you can be able to see J.K. The exhibition was divided into various rooms that show the things that were taught in Hogwarts such as Defense Against the Dark Arts and potions. RELATED: Everything We Know About The New Harry Potter Movie So FarĪccording to the Google Arts & Culture website, the exhibition was meant to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Harry Potter and to enlighten people about the history of magic in the world that they live in. The virtual exhibition will also allow you to see the lovely illustrations that have been designed for the book series, JK Rowling's handwritten notes, and some other fascinating treasures that you will enjoy in the book series. There seemed to be two distinct types of visitors those intent on seeing anything to do with Harry Potter and those heading straight for the wonderful historical erxhibits and even though it was crowded, you can bypass the HP lot and get to see the interesting exhibits first! The exhbition is well laid out in the BL's excellent exhibition rooms, there is an informative leaflet (free) to guide you around and the shop is full of HP memorabilia! If you have time, go up to the upper ground floor where there is another fascinating exhibition - The History of Recorded Sound.The Harry Potter's virtual exhibition has a wide range of entertaining resources including the captivating analysis of diverse aspects of the wizard's world such as the magical creatures, potions, the road to Hogwarts, and the Ripley scroll that shows how the philosopher's stone was created.
The displays of illustrated manuscripts and books (some of a very large size) are superb and together with artifacts including a wonderful globe showing the heavenly bodies, it is a fascinating exhibition. The main reason for my visit was to see the Harry Potter - A History of Magic exhibition now I must admit that I have very little interest in Harry Potter but but knowing the other excellent ehibitions that I have seen here, I was sure that there would be some treasures from the British Library's archives and I was right. The courtyard itself is very nice with areas of seating and a pleasant little cafe which offers some good snacks and cakes not to mention coffee and tea and if the weather is warm, you can sit outside. The British Library stands quietly in the busy Euston Road and once you are through the gates into the courtyard, the sound of the traffic seems to recede.
