TTOT181 The RSN Collection & Archive: Behind the scenes of the RSN Collections website

Dr Isabella Rosner, Wednesday 25 June 7pm UK

The RSN is home to more than 10,000 unique and priceless Collection and Archive pieces. Last year we launched the RSN Collection & Archive website to make the treasures of the RSN accessible to a wider online audience and we’d love for you to join us for this free online event to find out more about the objects currently listed.

During the round table discussion, RSN Curator, Dr Isabella Rosner, will be in conversion with a panel of some of those involved in the project and using the website to inform their work, sharing their stories, from the development process through to the website you can see today. These textile and paper objects span centuries and continents, revealing stories of everything from Arts and Crafts movement designers to Queen Mary’s textile collection.

The Collections website can be accessed free of charge, anywhere in the world. It features comprehensive catalogue entries, including high-definition images for each object with the option to view stitches up close, maker’s names, dates, places, stitches, motifs, techniques and extensive descriptions.  You can also find out more about the techniques and stitches featured via handy links to RSN Stitch Bank.
