Fascinating image when Sedgwick was working on new exhibits in the Cockerell Building. The plesiosaur from Whitby was bought by Sedgwick in 1841. The ichthyosaur skull being unpacked - could it be one he had agreed to buy from #MaryAnning in May 1843 and which arrived while he was away that summer?
