From the bustling Stock Jobbers Pitches at London Stock Exchange to the delicate Case of British Butterflies, collecting takes many forms. Whether it's a wartime pig food poster or a horse-drawn harvester, humans have always been drawn to gather and preserve. In Sudan, General Dinka children collect shea butter fruit with joyous enthusiasm, while in Connemara, County Galway, turf is carefully collected from the bog. Bees buzz busily in springtime as they diligently collect nectar for their hive. A selection of common British Moths showcases nature's beauty captured by collectors' hands. Little Lady Bountiful shares her treasures generously with those around her. Even scrap metal has its value when collected and repurposed for a greater purpose. St George's Hospital in London collects stories of healing and hope within its walls every day. Beekeeping in the 19th century was an art form practiced by dedicated individuals who understood the importance of these tiny creatures' work. Collecting connects us to our past, present, and future - preserving moments that would otherwise be lost.
